“Building your "dream life" is filled with things that can feel like the opposite of a dream: Mistakes Delays Starting over Failure The building part is actually more of a rebuilding that is a continual process.

“My divorce has changed my life. I don’t cry anymore. My bad dreams are starting to go away. I feel stronger, as if all these ordeals have toughened me. When I go out in the street, sometimes women in the neighborhood call to me, congratulating me and shouting ‘Mabrouk!’ – a word once tainted by evil memories, but which I know like to hear again. And shouted by women I don’t even know! I blush, but deep down I’m so proud.” IfsKnowsFeelsSometimesDreamEvilMemoriesStreetsCryChangedProudStrongerStartingDivorceNeighborhoodGoing AwayDeep DownShoutingChanged My LifeOrdealsTaintedBad Dream Book:I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced Source: I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced

“Those who dismiss rappers as vulgar outsiders miss the way that Jay-Z and Kanye embody the American dream: starting from humble beginnings, both rose by dint of hard work and talent to wealth and success.

“I believe that the gospel and the American Dream have fundamentally different starting points. The American Dream begins with self, exalts self, says you are inherently good and you have in you what it takes to be successful so do all you can, work with everything you have to make much of yourself. The gospel begins with God, the reality that we were created to exalt his name to the ends of the earth.” BelieveDifferentEndsSelfDreamRealityEarthNamesI BelieveSuccessfulStartingHaving FunBeing SuccessfulAmerican DreamStarting Point Author:David Platt
