Dream Big

Dream big, dream big
Never forget to dream
Life’s no rehearsal
No matter how it seems
Aim not for half-truths
Reach for the extremes
Dream big, dream big
Never forget to dream

Live large, live large
Make sure that you live
Life’s half what you take
Half what you can give
Never let the sweetness
Escape through the sieve
Live large, live large
Make sure that you live

Dream big, dream big
Make the world your own
A child’s dreams should linger
Long after they’ve grown
Whether it’s a beauty queen
Or sitting on a throne
Dream big, dream big
Make the world your own.

  1. Great advice I love the bit about not living like it is a rehearsal or a half-life, even though I believe in reincarnation I believe every life is unique and precious, a vehicle for awakening
