Running helps me stay focused on my Dream Board. I know some may say what is a Dream Board? Well, a Dream Board is a collage of pictures and witty ideas of my desires. Things I aspire to get and achieve.
One of my desires was to start a memory fund for my sister and that has been checked off my list. It is called the Terry’s Children Fund and now Terry’s Children Fund is collecting Back to School supplies for the children of Gary, Indiana, who so desperately need them. Gary, Indiana is where I grew up and is where my sister lived and passed away. Like the song Michael Jackson sang “Going Back to Indiana”, that is what I had to do to fulfill her dream. The supplies will be given to the Gary School District and they will be distributed at Gary’s Parade for Education on September 19, 2009. This is truly a dream come true. My sister would have been very happy to know her love for children and desire to help them is now a reality. This is why I don’t mind running because when I run my legs are hers running to fulfill a dream. So be a dreamer.
Had a good run today and now that the ½ Marathon is behind me, it is time to take it to another level.
I have to ask…. what’s on your Dream Board?
