"our greatest fear as individuals and as a church should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter." -tim kizziar

I've been pondering this concept for months, so when a friend sent me this quote by tim kizziar, my heart connected with it immediately.
Hard work and lofty goals are the American way. And yet, the very ethic that this nation celebrates and has boasted in, is the same one that can take people down paths they were never ordained to travel. In the end, maybe they made money, maybe they impacted lives, maybe they did cool things--but imagine what could have been had the proper time been given to sitting and dreaming and listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit--and then leaving that dreaming session ready to risk everything for the things stirring in your heart.
I think a few have taken that path. I want to live life that way--dreaming and risking and loving--succeeding at the things that matter.
