The Courage to Follow Your Dream

I have a sort of love/hate relationship with dreams and goals for my life. I think to myself whether God, if he exists, would like us to have our own goals, or dreams for ourselves to pursue and to fulfil in our lives, or if it is better for us to just live and let live, like the plants and trees do, without any plans, goals, dreams, or purpose. God, I would say, has his plans for every part of his creation, individually so, and yet he allows each part to grow themselves into his plan, from pursuing their own side plans in their lives. Even plants can do this, by pursuing growth in new ways, from the evolutionary process in them, which is also a part of the human body too, of course, but us humans have other factors too, inputting from our souls, as higher plans and purposes, for our lives. I think we should follow our dreams then, but with the proviso that we should not override these higher plans, missions, and purposes, for our lives, with any pipedreams that are not really helping the life of our soul to reach heaven in its time, through its growth in love, here and now, in our lives, here and now, here.
