dreams are for real.

Happy Monday, everyone! {cv} and I had one of those perfectly quiet weekends at home, which produced only a few instagrams--so I'm back with a little Monday motivation for all of you. This week's quote comes from none other than Tupac Shakur...can you believe it?


I chose this quote because I finally took time this weekend to pull together my new Polish Your Blog site. When I started blogging back in November 2010, I never imagined what this adventure would bring me. My reality back then was totally wrong. The dreams I have for my future blow my "old" dreams out of the water...and it seriously has me itching for each new day. I can't wait to help others discover what all the blogosphere has in store for them :)

I never guessed Tupac would be the one to impart this wisdom, but I'm infinitely grateful he did. This week, these words will remind me to keep my dreams in the forefront of my mind--even when the reality of everyday life gets in the way. Though we shouldn't live with our heads in the clouds, we truly ought to keep those things we want to achieve closer at hand than we do. Blogging has most definitely encouraged me to do just that--I hope it's done the same for you. If not, let this week be the start...and if you need help on the journey, I'm here for you! See y'all tomorrow!
