"A person is not old until regrets take the place of dreams." by John Barrymore
"All people dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." by T.E. Lawrence
"Dreams are illustrations...from the book your soul is writing about you." by Marsha Norman
Dreams. They are an extraordinary thing, but only if you act on those dreams. Now, I am not talking about those sometimes crazy dreams that you sometimes have that make no sense like you almost falling off a cliff that suddenly appears in your bathroom, but don't because Harrison Ford saves you, or something like that. I am talking about those things that go threw your head that you would love to do someday or that you wish you had the courage to do. Maybe it's something like 'you want to become an famous artist, musician, actor, or some other thing that people are always saying are hard careers to get into.' The thing is though someone has to make it in those hard-to-get-into careers. Why can't it be you? Who said it can't be and should you be listening to this person when you have this particular dream burning inside of you? I don't think so. I think a person should go after their dreams. I believe God gives you these 'dreams' for a reason. Don't give up on them. Don't just tell yourself that you would never be able to make your dreams come true. Well, guess what, you will never know if you don't try because you will miss every shot that you don't take. I think that it is better to try to shoot for your dreams and possibly miss then to not try at all. At least then you'll know and if it doesn't work out as planned I am sure that you have other dreams to shoot for. (Don't give up easily though. Walt Disney didn't and look where it got him.) Take care and God bless!
Love,
