Three steps to make your dreams reality. From dreaming to believing may take sometime and everything depends on you . From believing until achieving it may take time and also you need health , luck and patience until the destination which is the success. This is the way things work in any effort made by man either in individual or collective level. When you achieve a dream then you have already learnt a lot of experience and knowledge on the way , although getting knowledge never stops . It is a “long way to Ithaki” – to remember also Ulysses from Greek Mythology - but when finally arrived there , then you are more integrated and more knowldegeable. Another new thing starts now : To pass the obtained knowledge to other people. Going over these lines above , every Geoscientist or mineral collector or even Companies active on Minerals , Gemstones , Fossils will recognise , by doing a play-back , the steps they passed through until they achieved what they have achieved , at least some of them. When you create something from the none such as a mineral collection and you have upgraded accordingly , you remember all steps , adventures as fond memories in your life. All this editorial wants to emphasize how important is the contribution of experienced Geoscientists and mineral collectors to Children and Junior Collectors and how important are Mineral and Fossil shows – if not exclusively for kids - when they include programms for the younger generation. Things have not to be in quantity but small and in quality . That is something we have started back in 1986 with this Magazine and are trying to do all the years through by promoting activities related with Earth Sciences and Kids. During 1rst GeMin back in 1987 I had met with some Little Mineral Collectors but with Big dreams. Since then quite a few of them who had dreamt and believed could also achieve for their own benefit and benefit of Earth Sciences. Dimitris G. Minatidis

(Dream it – Believe it – Achieve it !!! As simple as that !)
