Dreams keep us motivated. They give us a sense of purpose and hope for what could be. For as long as I can remember, I've dreamt about owning a hearse. It was a crazy fantasy that I didn't think would actually happen. I can't begin to describe how incredible it felt when that dream came true, and I became the proud owner of Hetty the Hearse.
From the beginning, I knew that Hetty didn't come risk-free and today, when I drove her to the garage, I was determined to go in with high hopes and a positive attitude. Deep down, I knew there was a chance that my dreams of many Hetty adventures to come could all be squashed.
I was scared I was going to be told Hetty was beyond repair, and my dreams would be over before they began. But, as luck would have it, Hetty can be fixed... it's just a matter of how much I am willing to spend.
This has got me thinking... when will enough be enough?
I still don't know the extent or the cost of her repairs. My heart tells me to hold on to my dreams for as long as I can and do whatever it takes. My head tells me I need to be realistic, not go into debt, bankrupt myself, and ruin my life to make it happen.
I truly do believe dreams can come true, but I am learning along the way the risks and costs that may be involved in pursuing them.
