What You Believe



What you believe has more power than what you dream or wish or hope for. You become what you believe ~ Oprah Winfrey

What is your dream?  Do you believe it can come true? Really?

I dreamed a long time ago that I could become a published author.  But it wasn't until I started believing it that I was able to devote the time it took to finish my first manuscript, edit it enough to submit, and submit it to publishers and agents.  I believed and it came true.

I've shared before that I've had other dreams, that I've pursued other dream journeys that never worked out. Looking back now, I think maybe it's because although I dreamed it would happen I never believed it.  I wished for it, but never believed it.  Because I didn't believe it, I don't think I was ever able to muster the strength and discipline needed to make those dreams come true.

Do you truly believe that your dream can come true?

Is it possible for two Civil War veterans to find their place in the world on the Kansas Prairie?
 
When the War Between the States ended in 1865 many Americans emerged from the turmoil energized by their possibilities for the future. Frank Greerson and Gregory Young were no different. After battling southern rebels and preserving the Union, the two men set out to battle the Kansas Prairie and build a life together. Frank yearned for his own farm, away from his family—even at the risk of alienating them. Gregory, an only child, returned home to claim his inheritance to help finance their adventure out west.

Between the difficult work of establishing a farm on the unforgiving Kansas prairie, and the additional obstacles provided by the weather, Native Americans and wild animals, will their love and loyalty be enough to sustain them through the hardships?
