Premium Member Dreamers and Teamers

Although nothing is wrong when we spend our time alone, dreaming,
but when we are done dreaming, or when we awake thinking, we must
become aware that there can be no dream-fulfilling unless there is
team-building.  Together united, we can build the most beautiful edifices                                                       
and the tallest strappers, saying "Hi" to the clouds in the skies.                     

But alone, self-endulged, self-absorbed, self-deluded, and selfishly motivated,
we are destined to become like sand on the sea shores, washed away by
by the high tides.  We may soar like the eagle, be swifter than the chetah,                                                      
wiser than the ader, more enduring than the tortoss; but in a relay,  we will dream alone if we cannot pass the paton. So let us dream on my friend,         but may we never forget to 'team on'.
