This weekend my grandfather celebrated his 50th birthday!!! It was definitely a party to remember simply because he had all of the people he loves around him on his very special day. I recall the day perfectly; he walked through the door from a long days work looking as if he was a bout to pass out. 5, 4,3,2,1, Go, Happy Birthday Grandpa!!! His wife, children and all of his grandchildren shouted as a smile appeared on his face in such surprise. “Hahaha you got me”, he laughed as everyone blew their little horns with their birthday hats on their heads and smiles upon their faces. We could tell that he was so overwhelmed with joy that he could barely stand on his feet. All of the hard work and preparation that we did paid off in the end after all. He was happy, that was all we really wanted. We ended up getting that and more simply because we were able spend time together as a family on my grandfather’s birthday, something that we haven’t been able to do in a while.

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.

You're lucky to have a grandfather so young!
