I never forgot being in English Literature class during my high school years and hearing this poem for the very first time. It resonated so much with me because it gave me hope; it encouraged me. It made me feel as though my dreams did matter and it also confirmed that if I didn't attempt them then I would always live with the regret. So, as we journey into a new season remember it's an opportunity to have a fresh start, a new beginning but mostly importantly a chance TO HOLD FAST TO DREAMS.
