Answer 1

I had a child at 16 and for many years I was "stuck in busy".
At 40 I received my doctorate degree. I am currently trying things I never had time for when "stuck".
It is never too late unless we convince ourselves that it is.

Answer 2

My answer is yes...and no. Whenever I dream of something big, something comes in my way. Not mistakes but responsiblities. Mistakes shouldnt stop you, they should make you strive harder. Maybe if your young, you should try to plan step by step then your dreams would be accomplished. Even if your so old, it is never too late to try. Just because you havent accomplished your dreams now, doesnt mean you never will. May the shine find you, my friend.

Answer 3

I believe that age is a definite factor. We learn as we age from the experience of the passing years. Dreams become more visible because we know what NOT to look for. Sometimes we even learn that our dreams of youth weren't reasonable and we replace them with ones that are.
Although some people never learn, we have the option of letting wisdom come with age.

Answer 4

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

Never give up your dreams, that is the stuff life is made of!

Answer 6

If you have faith in God, He will give the desires of your heart. You must have faith first and foremost. The Lord uses life's situations to teach us and ready us for things he has planned for you. Although things do necessarily go the the way you planned you have to remember if God is in control, nothing is out of control. If it is what He planned He will open the doors, if not the doors will be closed. Do not give up, but ask Him to show you His way for you to accomplish His will for you. Ask Him directly, boldly and in faith. He will direct you.

Answer 7

I think there are people that, nothing stops them. They grab hold of life, decide what they want, and go for it. I....am not that kind of person. I have always just kind of taken life as it comes. *smile*...but I admire these go-getter types. I will cheer from the sidelines for them, no matter what age they are. And you can be one of them. I'll cheer for you, okay? You go!!
