At the end of the day, God isn’t going to ask, “Why weren’t you more like Billy Graham or Mother Teresa?” He won’t even ask, “Why weren’t you more like David?” God is going to ask, “Why weren’t you more like you?
If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise.
Have You Been You?
- A teacher named Sosya, ripe with years and honors, lay dying. His students and disciples asked if he was afraid to die.
- Sosya: Yes, I'm afraid to meet my Maker.
- Student 1: How can that be? You have lived such an exemplary life. You have led us out of the wilderness of ignorance, like Moses.
- Student 2: You have judged between us wisely, like Solomon.
- Sosya: When I meet my Maker, He will not ask, "Have you been Moses or Solomon?" He will ask, "Have you been Sosya?!"

Ich hab geträumt
Not sure what “Ich hab geträumt” means, but this was a great post by…
This is the problem with living in a society where making choices is almost always between the practically realistic and the hopeless alternative: We’ve forgotten the joy and excitement of pursuing the wildest of dreams, we’ve lost the ability to support those who dare to follow their hearts at all costs.
For all of you who aspired to be doctors and lawyers, good for you to have a dream that comes attached with a practical society’s stamp of approval. For everyone else whose aspirations might lead you down a more unconventional path, please know that you are not alone.
May all our dreams come true.
