Dreams on fire..
“Every child is born special, everyone has a dream.” But where do these dreams disappear? Where do all the thoughts of becoming pilots, scientists, artists, interior designers, teachers etc. vanish? I am pretty sure most of the people who are into the above mentioned professions are in it more due to fate and less by choice. So, where is it that we go wrong?
The answer lies in the society, upbringing and the educational system. You get them right and you are into the profession you always wanted. The society plays a big part in dribbling our thoughts and ambitions. The curriculum we follow drains out the creative nutrients from our life. It puts out the spark of originality that one possesses. The blunt focus is on getting more and more “Doctors and Engineers” whose quality worsens day by day but the quantity is still going high! Is it because there is a demand for these professions? Be critical in your thinking and you will have the answer. The reason is plain and simple: “It’s the best way to make money and settle in life”.
Gone are the days of believing in life after death! Get back to reality! We live our life just once. And all you want to do in this only life is to work for someone else for a wage? And that too knowing the fact that you won’t be carrying the money with you once you are dead!! Worth it?
Yes, the immediate question that would pop-up in the minds is what should we do for a living? Money is a factor, I agree, but not the only! Life isn’t just material wealth. I am not against working for a company but one should not let off his/her dream in doing so. Keep your dream alive with your professional life. Learn and balance both! Following your dream will give you a sense of satisfaction like no other thing in this world!
Doesn’t matter whether you are a success or a failure at accomplishing your dream but at least you tried. Not many people do that. Know for a fact that everyone dreams. The difference was that the next morning you woke up; you made an attempt to convert it into reality while the others followed their usual routine and suppressed their heart’s call. And the more efforts you make, the closer you get until one day you realize you are finally there.
My Life, as I live it.
