Dreams, Take My Hand

An original poem about embracing your dreams once again. Even in the storm, don't ever forget.

Dreams, Take My Hand

Hey readers! This week, I placed focus on feeling uneasy or regretful in forgetting a goal. Truly, it can be a challenge to place a dream you've had for awhile in motion. I can attest, that these last few weeks, have been difficult for me to remain motivated. I tried my best to showcase these feelings into this personification poem; maybe someone can relate to this for themselves. We will all go through different phases of discovering ways to achieve any goals that are important to us. However, always remember: never forget dreams even in the storm. As elementary as this may sound, it indeed, is true: your aspirations are uniquely 'you.' Take this with you and allow inspiration to follow. Much love to you all!


The rain keeps falling,

Tears from the sky

In a moment like a flash of lightening

The air became less dry

It continued to seep into the ground

Making it muddy, almost like quicksand

Take my hand, Dreams, take my hand

Remind me of yesteryear

Allow the day to be filled with dreaming

When I was younger and more determined

Lately, I've been reminded of being passionate

I can feel the sense of joy just thinking of

Achieving past what I limited myself to

The clouds of the current storm began to roil

As if I was still missing something in mind

Thunder crashed and agreed for me to never forget

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

Walking down the memories in my head

Of what I knew I could be instead

Sleepless, I tossed and turned

As the wind whistled like a warning

I knew it before the morning:

Dreams cannot be forgotten

They are not my regret

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

So, I can never forget

I can never pretend

My dreams ever left, the rain now gone

I do, truly, feel best

To know that when the rain leaves

What matters to me creates the seams

To the definition of 'me'

Dreams, keep me close

Dreams, keep me safe

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

They remain with me

Forever again

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
