“A map is the greatest of all epic poems. Its lines and colors show the realization of great dreams.”

And I'm Free
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

We don't have a plan...
You can't have plans. You can't have that image of the future which is all you see. If you do that then you lose your reason and every action you take is solely to achieve that image. Often time that image is pure and beautiful but in all likely hood it will lead you astray, and just as often the image before your waking eyes is just as beautiful. This life is not in our hands but rather, in the hands of He who made it. It's not for us to decide what the future will hold. If you always have plans then, more or less, you will always end up being disappointed.
That is what I believe has happened to The White Knight. He has had a vision in his mind of the life he wants to have. Yet I wonder if it's leading him astray. He has been so blinded by it that it caused him not only to loose his usual stubborn reason but also to neglect the reason of others.
Now I'm not saying not to dream or not to hope, just don't let your hopes and dreams cloud your mind until that dream is all that is left for you to see. By all means let you dreams soar, let your hopes never die, but don't be to busy starring at the clouds that you walk into a wall.

He Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. -
-William Butler Yeats

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. -

Dreams
"He said, "Listen to my words: "When a prophet of the Lord is among you, I reveal myself to him in visions, I speak to him in dreams."-- Numbers 12:6
