Running Down the Dream

Yesterday, I ran my fifth marathon.  Or walked it.   Or ran and walked it, anyway.  The important thing was, I didn't stop, and I didn't quit.  I'll have more details to share soon, but for now, I wanted to springboard into the blog post today with this song...

Runnin Down a Dream
Tom Petty

​ It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin'
Trees flew by, me and Del were singin' little Runaway
I was flyin'
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I felt so good like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days the rain was un-stoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream

There is that part of the song that goes:  There's something good waitin' down this road / I'm pickin' up whatever's mine / Yeah runnin' down a dream / That never would come to me.
Think about that!  I know I did yesterday!  We need to all know that we must keep going down the road, becuase there is something good waiting down the road, and that dream is not going to come to you--you have to GO TO IT.  (Or "run it down" as the song details).  

The past 3 months has been VERY interesting here.  I have met many people and have had many exciting and rewarding experiences while starting up this law firm.  It has been a dream of mine for quite some time to have my own firm for quite some time.  Be my own boss.  Do my own thing.  And here we are.  I'm going to keep running, or at least walking, but I need some help.  I need some clients, and soon.  I'm ready to help you run down your dreams--give me a call.
