If I Had a Million Dollars

If I had a million dollars i wouldn't build a tree fort in my yard.

If I had a million dollars I wouldn't buy a green dress.

If I had a million dollars I...might take a limousine to the store but

If I had a million dollars i would build a camp.

This camp would combine two of my loves in life; Rugby and Jesus. Many people think the two don't mix but i feel i could make it work (with God's help of course). I would set up a camp for children to come learn how to play Rugby but also so they could learn about God's love for them. I have no clue where i would do this, whether i would do it in Canada or go abroad. I actually have no clue if i will do it. It seems like such a lofty goal and i'm barely 5'9". But, if i had a million dollars i would be planning out locations for the camp instead of just blogging about it.

But then questions start to build up in my mind. Should i let money get in the way? If God has given me this dream then should i trust that this is his plan for me? Would i actually take a limousine to the store?

It would be cool though, teaching kids Rugby but also teaching them to give all the glory to God. It would make me feel like i did something really important with my life because, i'm a history major, i am not expecting to have a very important and life changing career. The more i think about it the more i want to stop doing history and get this camp going which leaves me with one final question. Is it stupid or foolish to chase one's dreams?

thanks for reading

p.s. If anyone wants to donate a spare million dollars i would love to accept it and, just cause i can, i want to throw a shout out to my bro P-Toro and his blog Relationally Speaking. He got me on blogging so give him some love and 'Check It'
