Things

Trying to resurrect something that is dead may require a miracle, but there is also the chance that what I resurrect will more likely only be a sham of the real thing.  Look at Stephen King's Pet Sematary, or all the tales about zombies.  The bodies are there, but the soul is gone.

Dreams have a tendency to blow things up out of proportion.  Things appear better, or worse, than they really are.

When times are bad, it is time to dig in my heels and opt for reality.  As hard and cold as it is, at least it is real and real things have real possibilities.

Imagined things, or re-membered things are like lava lights, constantly shifting shapes in a pretty light that never amounts to anything more.

Real life requires real things.  If everything seems bad, maybe it is time for real changes.  Start at the bottom and work up.

You're probably already at the bottom, but if you aren't sure and don't know where to start, look at Maslow's Hierarchy of needs.  Start at the bottom of that and try working up.

Lots of things are possible. 

It's a plan. It's real progress.
