Follow Your Dreams

Follow your dreams
Or they will become extinct
In the scheme of life

    Russell words to live by. Reality will remain an illusionism in your mind unless you physical live these realities or dreams. Life is too short. Sound advice you so masterly created into a Senryu. Warm Smiles, Connie
