Dreaming the Impossible Dream

Recently, I awoke from a very specific dream-- In which I expressed my getting-a-B.A. scheme A long-time ambition I've put on the back-burner Delayed because I'm not much of a wage-earner It'd be easier to succeed with a B.A. under my belt? Hard to get there with low self-esteem (as I've felt) Plus it'd make my outlook on life more well-rounded Even if all that online study makes me feel grounded But as for a potential professional job without a degree I'm looking into Indexing -- might be just right for me! Then if I can support my education financially that way I hopefully will join the ranks of B.A. grads someday... Whether or not I go after this accomplishment, I will age The question is, by that time, do I wish to be more sage? But I tend to get discouraged and distracted; so no promise Perhaps I can enlist the smarty-pants prayers of St. Thomas
