It was a childish dream...

If we could as a person bend the lines of time and travel back to meet a younger version of ourselves and introduce our-self to him/her, how many of our younger selves would be disappointment in what we have become? As a child we hold so many beliefs about where are future will lead us...an astronaut...a model...an actor...a footballer...whatever and wherever our dreams led us at that age, how many of us actually followed that path? That's the thing about life, our lives are shaped by our own actions and follow different paths from where we once dreamt they would lead us. Most of us will grow to enjoy our lives that we choose, but how many unfulfilled dreams do we push down deep within ourselves and suppress our fantasies for 'real' life. And that's the point, we should dream...our minds should be filled with greatness sometimes and not the everyday worries about work and bills. Recently I have watched a programme about Colonel Sanders who went from job to job, failing at most until a dream led him to sell his own recipe for fired chicken...it's not much, but he had a dream and that's the real point. It's never too old to dream...it's never too old to push yourself further. Hold that dream and share it with the world and maybe...just maybe that dream can be a reality. Nobody can take your dreams from you...
