Dreams

Nov 22, 2008 21:46

It has been a month and half. The only goal that I've started to accomplish is being better to my friends, and trying to trust more. Other then that, I really haven't done anything. I wonder why? I can see this person that I want to be. She's happy, lives each day to the fullest, and takes everything with a grain of salt. I'm still a long ways away from that person.

On another note, I have been thinking quite a bit about dreams. Not the kind while we sleep, but the ones we are passionate about, the ones that make us happy when we think about them.

I wonder what stops people from living out their dreams. I'm sure for some it's fear of the unknown, for others it could be hugely inconvenient, and maybe some feel they just don't have the means to do it.

Wouldn't it be sad, to go your whole life dreaming of what could be? There was a quote I heard, "One day your life will flash before your eyes, make sure it's worth watching." It's interesting, because a wonderful life could be so different for so many different people. Some people dream of the perfect career, some people dream of settling down and starting a family, some people dream of seeing the world. I think something that I have to remember is to respect everyone's dream, as different as they may be.

I still haven't quite figured out my dream. I'm in an unusual position because, at 21, I'm living with someone who I'm quite happy with. I like to think that besides becoming a better human being and figuring out my career, everything else in my life is wonderful right now.

There are still many things I'd like to do, as I'm not sure my life would be worth watching just yet.
