The Universe Stands on Tiptoe

This quote or something similar to it has been attributed to different authors. I choose to showcase here the one attributed to Constance Arnold. I find this as a very powerful and inspiring quote. Imagine how powerful this line is, "...the whole universe stands on tiptoe waiting to assist you in miraculous and amazing ways...!"


The photo is a sunrise over the mountains of Cordillera. The colors that morning were simply amazing!

Blueprints of achievements

It's unfortunate that the author of this inspiring quote is unknown. I so love how he/she talked about our dreams and visions as the "blueprints of our ultimate achievements".


The photo is an early morning shot of the marker rock and plants in Boracay's white beach.

Boracay is my favorite island here in the Philippines. If you want to know more about this island, I have written several hubs or articles about it in my HubPages site. Here is the link to one of them. You can get the link to the other articles from this. http://jill-of-alltrades.hubpages.com/hub/The-Best-Beach-in-the-Southeast-Asia-Side-of-the-World

You can change your life

This is another reminder to us about the importance of acting on our dream. Thanks to don Miguel Ruiz.


The background photo is a nature abstract done by painting with the camera. I wrote an article on how to do this technique in case you are interested. Here is the link: http://jill-of-alltrades.hubpages.com/hub/Nature-Abstract-in-Photography

Begin your Dream

This is another dream quote that I like. Dreams really have power. We just need to take action to make them come true, and there is no better moment to begin than now!


This is a photo of the eternal flame monument found in Corregidor island here in the Philippines. It is dedicated to the soldiers who died during World War II.

Dream a New Dream

This is another "dream" quote that I love. It is even more significant to me now that I belong to the "seniors" category. I must admit though that I have never stopped dreaming dreams. That's probably why I can really identify with this quote from C.S. Lewis.



The photo is a section of an unusual mum. The red tips remind me of flamingos. Why did put this together with the quote? I must admit that my only answer is, the quote plus the photo and the color scheme look good together. Don't you agree?

Direction of Your Dreams

I have admired Henry David Thoreau for as long as I can remember. I have collected some of his quotes and I'm sharing one of them now.

As you can see this is another "dream" quote. I have posted several of  them here already.  Isn't it obvious that I do believe in dreams?


The background photo is the mahogany forest in Bohol, Philippines which lines a major highway. This is such a cool place! Don't you agree?

Boldness has Magic

If you noticed, I have several quotes about dreams. Yesterday's post was about believing in your dreams. Another post talks about the beauty of dreams. Today, I am sharing about the boldness required to make our dreams come true. Keep on dreaming!



The background is a combination of photo and digital painting. I painted the sun and layered it with my photo of a tree. Then I blended them together using gradients. I love how everything turned out including the quote from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Make Your Dreams Come True

If we want to make our dreams come true, we really have to work on them ourselves. 

I combined this quote about dreams from  Leon J. Suenes with my photo of this boy who I found playing in a park. I just love the innocence and happiness on this boy's face. 




I actually climbed another branch of the tree just so I could get his photo.

The Beauty of Dreams


This quote from Eleanor Roosevelt  resonates well with my own belief about dreams. I believe that we should never stop believing in our dreams. This belief is what propels us to get up in the morning and start our day. Don't you agree?


I think this photo of the carnation with its dreamy background goes well with this quote. What do you think?

Life is full of possibilities

Life is full of possibilities. We only need to look around and discover what is in store for us. It is really up to us.

I love this quote from "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. I think it fits very nicely with my photo of this fern frond that is about to uncurl. Just imagine all the possibilities waiting for it especially with that big raindrop on it.
