Judith Adams is a meta-physician, a student at Hazard Community College and a writer from Louisville, KY. She fell in love with Eastern Kentucky and moved to the Red River Gorge area almost 20 years ago with hopes of pursuing her writing. Now she lives in a wonderful place she calls Butterfly Haven Retreat in Campton. From this wonderful place she writes, manages the
"ranch," does healing work, tarot readings, and offers retreat days and workshops. "My to do list is in volumes but I do find time to write," she says. "The novel I started years ago is closer to being completed. I may not be Hemingway, doing nine rewrites, but the book is in another rewrite phase. It's a love story that questions reincarnation." Her articles have been published in small Louisville papers, Sacred Community with examiner.com and most recently her submission was accepted for This I Believe/April 2013 and is included on this site.

Dreams Coming True
Dreams surface from the subconscious mind; they come from the depths of the soul. Day to day problems seek solutions in the land of beyond. Dreams may come through symbols or scenes, voices that speak to me as I sleep. Symbology is an important component for interpreting dreams. A horse to me may mean, ride the horse in the direction it is going; for you, it might mean you should embrace the strength of this strong symbol for personal courage.
Dream! My gifts and my talents are different from yours. My personal challenge is to discover those talents, pursue becoming the best I can be. Some of us are blessed at a very early age in knowing our dreams and the pursuit is easier. “When I grow up I want to be….” isn’t a searching question. The dream course it set into place, a plan evolves to make this a reality. For others, the course is more uncertain. My own course of discovery has taken many years. The ability to use my imagination, to think outside the box I was in, to pursue my dreams instead of just make a living took years and years to achieve.
For a long time I had a dream that was always the same. I was driving down a road in the middle of nowhere. I made a wrong turn and got stuck in mud that covered my tires. Mud flew as my tires kept on spinning. Obviously, this was a time in my life when I felt stuck with my tires spinning in the mud in real life. Dreams had to be pushed aside; I was stuck where I was with no AAA coming to the rescue. Eventually, I got out of the mud.
I dreamed of going to college but thought I had missed my chance. I was too old. Today, I am walking in classrooms, down a path that leads upward, fulfilling a dream I had pushed to the side. “It’s never too late.” This really is true.
AARP has a wonderful commercial that has different people saying, “When I grow up…” One wants to travel, one wants to help others, one wants to write a book, one wants to fall in love again. What I hear them saying is, “I will follow my dreams!”
Today I say, “When I grow up I am going to get a degree.” I couldn’t pursue that dream when I was younger. “When I grow up, I may write a book. I may travel too.” One thing for sure, I will be who I am. I will be the best me. I will let the voice guide me that speaks in my dreams.
I am blessed that I am now able to pursue my dreams. Dreams really do come true. And by the way, I never dream I am stuck in the mud; I dream of flying over treetops, sitting on clouds, being free in my dreams.
