Whenever I arrive at Stockholm central, I always walk by a Pocket shop book store. I love that store, every time I go by it reminds me of my dream, it reminds me of what I'm striving for - it reminds me of the future ahead.
I see all these people enjoying the books and picking out what they want to read. I see them choosing a book after carefully flipping through and reading the synopsis on the back. I see the excitement in their eyes as they think of what the book might entail, and how it may enrich their lives. I see them buying the book, feeling happy with their buy and leaving the store. I walk into the store and do the same thing, sometimes I just admire the books and flip through them without buying, and sometimes I buy one.
No matter what I do in that store, and no matter how many times I've seen the same thing that month I always walk to the back of the store. There, in the corner is another dream, another ambition just staring me in the face. The "Top Ten" wall, the top ten most popular books.
Someday, MY book is going to be flipped through, bought and read. Someday MY book is going to be enjoyed by all those people. Someday, MY book will up on that "Top Ten" wall. Those are my dreams and my goals.
And every time I walk by that store, I am reminded of them and feel a new surge of inspiration, excitement and energy flowing through me.
That is why I love that store - it's paradise.
