Noble vision and dreams need strong wings of endeavour, to span all possibilities under sky's expanse.(my copyright):-) How strong are your wings of endeavour? What are your dreams that you wish to fulfill? If you have to choose between your family and your promising career, what would you choose? Why?

I've had dreams of a national business. I started the business Just before Hurrican Katrina. After losing everything and raising 6 Grandchildren tha business had to be put on the back burners. I'll never stop trying but believe me it's very hard. We chose to raise our grandchildren because we LOVE them and it's not there fault being in a bad situation.

Its certainly not.Katrina was a terrible thing to happen.The reason behind HIS wrath is hard to understand. Well,life has to go on and what you have done for your grandchildren is much bigger and nobler than any other achievement.

sounds dangerous look what happened to Icarus seriously though, I have become VERY suspect of everything, burned way too many times. So in order to justify ANY effort, I need to see at least SOME benefit. They actually paid me 5 cents here yesterday, that counts. It would buy a few grains of rice.

Thats it.If you really believe in your dreams and truly love your family,then nothing can stop you from spreading your wings and soaring high,with your family very securely perched on your strong and safe back. Family and dreams together make a noble vision and a reality.One without the other is meaningless. A very correct thought.Thanks :-)

Actually, I just wanted to live simple and peaceful as much as possible. But then as ideas come, I can't help but to let them enter my life. And that makes my life complicated. Whenever I thought of something, I always come out with a story, together with illustrations. From that, I realized that I wanted to write stories or make a cartoon or a film if ever. I like watching cartoons, particularly anime and that adds to my aspiration of becoming a cartoonist/story writer.
