    I'm 73 years old and am about to live my daydream in October of this year. Going to ride my motorbike from the UK to Capetown. Trouble is, it scares the hell out of me. But, when I'm beginning to doubt that I'm up to it, I play this song and my courage is re-born.

    LILY: I'm a 78-year-old, semi retired university professor, whose "daydream" involves a whole new career toward the end of my life. It has been opposed and mocked and scorned and ridiculed, and otherwise severely criticized off and on for several years now, but I have never been more convinced and deeply satisfied with this new calling.
    When I heard you first sing this song on America's Got Talent, it grabbed ahold of me by the roots, and became my anthem for continuing to struggle to do what God has called me to do. And yes, it scares the hell out of me every day, but I have never felt so alive.
    I love who you are Lily Meola, and who you are becoming. Stay grounded, Butterfly, but fly nonetheless. You are a treasure.

Law enforcement has always been a dream but being a single mother after their dad passed it wasn't in the cards for me. It really hit home, I just wanted to tell ya that I felt it too.

The way she died was horrific and it 100% changed every fiber of who I am!! I'm slowly trying to find the Phoenix in me to rise up out of the ashes to honor my daughter's memory and be a woman she'd be proud of!!! Your song!!! So many songs are inspirational and gives people a bit of light, a bit of fire, and makes the soul fight for more!!!! Thank You!!! I look so often for things to pull me up out of the grief!!! Today that was you!!! You are a blessing to all woman and girls!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Found out about 30 days before the start of the tour that my Mom had terminal cancer with only maybe 9 months left.
    I couldn't leave her. My Dad and Mom made sure we had everything we needed when we were growing up and I was not about to leave her and be somewhere criss crossing the states. I cancelled the tour and spent the time she had left with her and my brother. After she passed . . . I had no desire to even play music for awhile. I needed the time to let my heart heal.
    Eventually I did return to the stage and resume my career but I never regretted my decision.

    I’m only 15, but this song makes me want to “live my daydreams.” I’ve always wanted to go to college for history or psychology and I think this is just what I needed to make that decision. I ended up thanking my sister for everything she’s done for me, and for living her own daydream so that I have a role model to live mine. Thank you for making this song and thank you for giving me that final push that I needed.

      Write your story. Everyday say what happened. Little to big, big to little...everyday is a gift and every little thing is important. Then when you're 50, you can look back on your story and see how you got to where you are. The good and the bad, the success and failures.

    I'm 45 years old and totally love this song. I lived my daydream (even for a short time). I went back to school at age 24 even though everyone was laughing at me and didn't think that would finish. In May 2009, I graduated with a Master’s Degree in criminal justice. I got to be a probation officer and eventually a law enforcement officer working in the Youth crime victim department. It was short lived daydream due to a car accident in 2013 and couldn't work anymore. Besides having my daughter (who is now an EMT at 28 yrs old living her daydream), that short stint was the happiest I was. So ANYONE out there, it's never too late to live your daydream.

Radiation, Chemo and a trial drug took her way too soon... her sister had one lung and 3 ribs removed years earlier and lived another 10 yrs.. Until Emphysema took her... as it did their other sister... when i had my Health Food Store i was able to help a lady with Emphysema to get well... diet plays a major part... i know mum is in a better place now.. No more tears, death, pain or sickness for her in Heaven.. dad joined her just before Covid hit our Aussie Shores together at last.. mum passed the day after their 55th anniversary.. 🥲
      They're always in our heart and thoughts... the pain does subside but they're always part of us and with us... a bit like Yashua (Jesus) who promises never to leave or forsake us.. always there...
