A Desire Realized

Dreams, Goals, and Desires…subconscious or real, we all have them.  Some are realized and some remain as unrealized

Over the years I have had several.  As a ten year old, I wanted to be a Camp Director.  After trusting Christ as my Savior I wanted to be in the ministry and Serve the Lord as my entire job, and I thought it would be really cool is my husband was a Pastor.  I also wanted to live in an old house that was two stories.  I wanted twins, and I wanted to be within walking distance to a Dunkin’ Donuts.

Obviously,  the twins and living next to Dunkin’ Donuts are still up in the air. (only the Judgment Seat of Christ will reveal the Service desire really worked out).

With the move to Memphis, Dunkin Donuts became a real possibility, except in Midtown, there were NO Dunkin’ Donuts around, and we had to settle for living next to Home Depot, an excellent second choice.

That is, until now…On Dec. 1 a new…

Yeah

opened in Midtown, within walking distance.

I joyfully announced this to Fr. Paul the other day, and his comment was, “But you don’t drink coffee”.  It took a bit to convince him that it was possible to eat doughnuts without drinking coffee.

In the end, we all know that it wasn’t just a doughnut shop, it was the realization to a dream.  (Sometimes you have to have dreams that aren’t going to make or break the world as we know it.)

    Same thing with wishes…

    Hobbes will tell you that a wish for a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich is way more likely to come true than a wish for a jetpack.
