Dreams


Dreaming
What is a dream? Many people dismiss their own dreams as they consider them not useful or even a waste of time. They could be no more wrong.

Dreams are part of us; they are stars that guide us to achieve great things. Without dreams there is no direction in our lives and it’s hard for us to accomplish anything.

Today I completed a list of 50 things I want to do before I die. I thought it was going to be really easy and that I would complete it in 5 minutes. It was very hard actually. I got very worried that maybe I don’t have enough dreams or I’m not passionate enough about things. I realized that I need to dream more.
I invite anybody who reads this journal to do a list like that: 50 things you want to do before you die. You will learn a great deal about yourself as you do that.


I read the last lecture given by a man named Randy Pauch. He said something that hit me really hard: ‘’ The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people’’. I want to be the kind of people who keep trying despite those brick walls I will face in life.
