Desire the fire that keeps you going when times are tough. Barnes didn’t know Edison yet his burning desire was to be in business with Edison. 5 years later he got his opportunity. We are tested to see how much we truly want our burning desire. It may take years of searching; it may take a while to learn those skills that are necessary to be a success.
Sometimes its being out there asking for help and realizing who is 
really willing to help You out and who isn’t. Who is going to stand there beside You with that goal or dream, even when You ask someone can I count on You for help. You learn to filter out who is truly willing to help You out. Yet desire means keeping on going until You achieve that goal. Whether its getting married, being a father and husband, traveling the world, climbing a mountain, being able to see again, being able to walk again, having better health, becoming tightened toned and firm, being able to provide for our family.
We have to keep that fire going as we are going to learn from faith and believe we can achieve that goal. Just keeping on working until we are at that place where we achieve that goal which we were working towards. Yet be careful who You express Your sweetest desires to or intentions to, the person You are speaking with about such may attempt to get fear to overtake Your goal or dream and it pushes You back. They may push their own desires onto you.
We must remain strong and steadfast with our own goals and dreams and say this is what I am wanting and I am going to achieve such. This is what I am going to do to achieve this goal and talk carefully with those who we know are in sympathy of what we are looking to achieve.
Thank you to everyone on this journey for everything you have ever done for me, in Your own way you have all taught lessons of which are worth a lifetime.
Your friend for life and big hugs,
