I like your comparison of goals and dreams. It is very apt, and I think both are important. I have had dreams become goals, and I have dreams that I know (with some sadness) will never become goals. But they are still beautiful, and I like to take them out and look at them and treasure them.

And I think God cares far more for our being than for our doing. I always had trouble with God as Father, until I had children of my owh. Now I am very attached to my Father and Mother God. Anyway, I care far more for my children’s being than for their doing. Doing is nice, and certainly not to be discouraged. But at some point, you have to stop doing and just rest in the silence with God. And being able to do that is a gift beyond measure.

Peace be with you!
