"Aint Nothin For Dreamers But Dreams" ~ Sandra Lue Alvis

"Aint Nothin for Dreamers but Dreams" ~ Sandra Lue Alvis
This is a quote from my grandmother that I will continue to acknowledge for the rest of my life. I believe this quote is talking about all of the people in the world that have dreams but never allow those dreams to become actions. Those "dreamers" will continue to dream rather than take action because they have no idea what a simple dream can become. I on the other hand, would rather be a person that has a dream that can be turned into a reality merely because I know a simple dream can be the one thing that can change the mantality of man and cause an overall new outlook on life itself.

The Garden Project

For my project I will be visiting the Garden Project which is a halfway house in the city of Camden. As if the picture was not a dead give away, the Garden Project is simply a program that allows women who are on probation or in and out of jail a chance to obtain community service hours and an opportunity to experience what it is like to be from behind bars. With this being said, the program permits the women to do many different activities indoors, such as arts and crafts, and outdoors, such as gardening, that will help them build character. When I heard about this project I decided that it would be the perfect thing for me to base my project on. Not only will this program take me out of my element, but it will allow me to build my character and give me a better understanding of how something as simple as gardening or arts and crafts will impact another person’s life.
