DREAMS

DREAMS.

the best place to imagine doing something big can be at the most mundane of all places, queueing up for the lottery ticket, doing your dump in the WC, taking the public train and to more unconventional situations, working at the heeren on a friday morning with no frigging people coming up to the 5th level.

A dream can never happen until you do something about making it come to past. I know you're saying "PREACH IT BROTHER" but hell, this isn't just all about God anyway. Dreams can be made available to anyone, agnostics included. The courage to dream big always has its repercussions. I'm pretty sure the age-old typical movie was some elder or higher authority dissing the wannabe youngling that he/she'll never make it, telling her to stfu and get back to her mundane chores.

Those who dream, would have to take risks, would have to put themselves out into a situation they'd never thought they'd be at. The initial rejections and critiques that might make the biggest giant shrivell into a wimply leprechaun. The need to guard themselves on who should speak into the lives are absolutely essential. Who says what to you needs to be filtered with sense and motivation. Out of spite? Out of jealousy, envy?

How are dreams formed? it's by interest really, suppose, you love playing good ol' soccer, and you develop a passion in scoring goals and covering your jewels during the offside kick (or whatever) . Eventually, if that becomes your highest priority, chances are, nothing's going to stop you from achieving a well-known status kicking a black-and-white spotted ball. And also, to the people who believe in God, it could be given from the Almighty, from a prophet, or to the more bizarre cult cases, a jar of jumping mexican beans or a Donna Summers Poster.

Another way that dreams are formed (though not as popular as the previous stanza) is by influence and self-motivation. Trust me, to my knowledge, i feel that many people in the world don't know what they want and eventually end up getting influenced and sharing a common dream with others. This isn't necessarily wrong nor is it right. To an extent do people actually realise down the road their motivation for sharing a dream with others, was it due to the fear of rejection from the majority? the lack of creativity and innovation from self to think of his/her own dream? It could also be right coz a common goal would instil a sense of bonding and build an affinity between two people, that might lead to an eventual romance, or just a very close knit friendship. So it isn't that bad as well. NOTE: a person can be influenced by his peers and situation as much, but it's up to his own strength and willingness would he even start to form and materialise his dream.

Much as there are dreamers, there are always a few bad apples within the bushel. Dream crushers are a group of people who will be adamant in extinguishing a flame of hope and faith. Some say they're emotionally unavailable to feel for people, some say they're giving them the gosh darn reality check a little too late. Whichever the case, they are essentially needed in this life and time to balance out what seems to be a paradigm of existence and mind-boggling concoctions.

Again, Dreams are nothing till something is done about it. So why don't you, yes you, the one with a Ben&Jerry's Chubby Hubby Pint in your left hand, and your right hand in your pants watching Oprah on a lazy afternoon, do something about it! wanted that 6 pec? sign up to a mega gym. wanted to get a job? look up the classifieds and start exercising PR! wanted to get laid? erm, get a job and that 6 pec and we'll talk.
