Your dreams are important.
You may have a dream that makes you really excited every time you think about it.
It’s a dream about playfulness and adventure and bringing more love into your life and the lives of people around you.
And you may feel sometimes like your dream is silly and impossible and you should give up on it.
It’s not and you shouldn’t. Your dreams are part of the gift that you are meant to give to the world, and we desperately need this gift.
Keep dreaming. You’ll figure it out.

One of my primary personal and philosophical interests is how we can learn to love ourselves and each other better in order to cultivate personal and political resilience. I teach ethics and a variety of other courses at a local college. I am the author of the blog Love is Stronger. I am also the author of three logic and critical thinking books for high school and middle school: _Argument Builder_, _Discovery of Deduction_ (co-author), and _Everyday Debate_, published by Classical Academic Press.

Another very uplifting post! As a writer-hopeful, my dream definitely makes me excited, but it also makes me want to pull my hair out how hard it is to succeed at it!
I love your writing, M.B., and I really sympathize because I have the same goal, and it also wants to make me pull my hair out sometimes.
Perhaps we both ought to wear hats more to protect our hair 🙂 Keep at it always – your posts are inspiring.
That’s so sweet, M.B. I love your posts, too. They are the perfect combination of informative, whimsical, and humorous.
