Ellie the dream follower

This would be me, if I were an elephant. I would be pink and rock retro glasses. 

Meet Ellie, she's a big dream follower, just like me. Today I realized that I am beyond blessed to be doing what I absolutely dreamed of, and I'm making a living while doing it. I can't think of a better scenario. What a scary jump it was to take the plunge, but I would never look back now. 

If you are like me and became an elephant afraid of a little mouse when you thought of following your dreams, I'm here to tell you to do it. I can be your test subject and let you know that I'm still alive, even though I'm a big pink dork with glasses. (Okay, I don't wear glasses... but I have retro sunglasses that I wear everyday, that counts right?) 

Don't be afraid of a little mouse. You are a big pink beautiful elephant and you too will shine when you follow those dreams and do what you love.
