Be a man do the right thing
Do u have a dream?
Have we come to the stage where,
We no longer want to be actors on a Broadway Show, we don’t want to dance as a profession we don’t want to indulge in our interests but we want to make money.
Is that all that the world has come to? Today practically everything is possible and a lot of us are under the misconception that we can’t chase after our dreams any more because it doesn’t bring in any income. Have you ever thought that you could possibly be happy and content with a decent income as the fact that you are living your dream is what gives you the ultimate satisfaction?
Life seems too short but the number of chances given to us are countless. It’s never too late to have determination sparkle in your eyes and to have that desire in your heart to covet your dream job.
Be what you want to be, fulfill your dreams. Or are they supposed to simply remain dreams?
Expectations set by others; eg. family.
Certain values that we inherit along the way overshadow our dreams and aspirations to become a tap dancer or a supermodel. That’s why our true dreams take the backseat in our lives and the “practical dream” is what we end up chasing.
So we all struggle in the same way, fighting for our dreams or fighting the instinct to follow our dreams. Some of us choose the path that chases after unimaginable jobs to fulfill that inner need of satisfaction. Meanwhile the rest of us move along in our tailored suits, brief cases and stern looks on our face; no different from those walking next to us.
Is it possible to live your dream in this day and age? OFCOURSE!! It’s all a matter of what choices you have and what decisions you make. There is room in today’s world for a growing imagination, a need for a unique identity, a need to be different. We are who we are and our dreams define who we are. Either we chase those dreams and make our identity clear to ourselves and others or we chase a different “practical” dream that helps us simply survive.
For me, I have to go for a dream that is practical. If it just so happens that I sucked at that dream job, I'd just have to compromise and go for one which I can enjoy. However, this dream must be well-rounded, with the oncoming stress for wealth in the society. Or even health.
Kids have the wildest fantasies about their future. They dream without being bogged down by restrictions of practicality and reality. They dream with an imagination and a desire to be someone different, to be someone exciting and new.
If you have not yet realised, your dream might have somewhat been compromised along the way and moulded into something more desirable as we grow older.
What are dreams to us? What is your dream?
