"Every artist, musician and poet has the same dream: To leave a monument of their hearts engraven upon the soul of history, so that generations yet to be can see through the window of the past, the people they once were."
For some reason, this is a phrase that I said in my dream last night. I think my conscience mind liked it so much that I kept repeating it until I woke up and could write it down. It may or may not make sense, but it seemed like something I was supposed to remember, so I thought I would document it here. Usually I can pinpoint an event in my life, or a movie I've watched, that triggers poignant phrases such as this one, but I am not sure what made this come to me. Maybe it is a phrase I heard somewhere else and my sub-conscience squirreled it away until now. I'm stumped, but you have to admit that it is kinda' cool that I can speak so much more eloquently in my dreams than in real life!

update

It is a new year and I am proud to post that I have actually made substantial progress on the new years' resolution front. For the first time EVER I have made an actual list of things I would like to accomplish, and so far I have kept to it. I decided to keep it short and sweet so here it is:

~read scriptures daily
~exercise once a week
~eat more vegetables

Well, it might seem a little on the simple side, but that is my plan you see! I have a greater chance of accomplishing these goals because it isn't too overwhelming to keep track of, or give up on. I might add another three goals mid-year to give myself a good challenge. I was thinking of:

~going to bed before 11 p.m.
~practice flute 3 times each week
~write in my journal weekly

I feel like this year has gotten off to a good start! The kids are thriving in school, the older four have excelled at basketball, everyone has been relatively well and quite happy with life! And super chemist is still employed!

C'est si bon!
