What a wonderful read! Loved the poetic style you used while making the reader dream + act, not an easy combination and you express it beautifully.

Go live!

I love this piece and reminded me of this quote by T.E. Lawrence: "All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible."

Dream dangerously, Yehudis!

There's as much of a poet in you as a dreamer. Maybe they're the same thing. It's inspiring to watch you bring those dreams down to the ground and live them.

Feels so alive Yehudis!! Just getting out there and doing stuff means more action starts happening in months than years of dreaming could bring. No matter the pain - the journey makes it worth it!

For years I bounced idea to idea to start an org but never pushed throught it- thinking whether the idea was big enough or unique enough. In last 6 months - I reveresed the approach said I'll take a semi-unique idea start executing and eventually a unique model will appear. Just executing day after day has shown the journey and the pain far outweigh any unbelievable ideas!

“I was hurt a hundred times more when I was helpless and innocent and in my dreamland than since I took life and started living it.”

What a profound realization.

Another incredibly written, moving piece. 👏🏼
