time that you spend relaxing and doing things that you enjoy rather than time spent doing things for other people
"Like most parents with young children, I don’t get much me time."
As much as I feel that we all need our "Me Time" when facing difficult times, I think it is an awful waste of precious minutes and seconds. Think of the times you tell yourself, "ok I need a few days to recover from this wreck". So why give yourself a timeline to that wreck and subject yourself to further damage?
Here it is, a wreck, a broken glass shattered across the floor, instead of telling yourself, "let me take one day to clear this up", doesn't it make more sense to "I'm gonna pick them all up right away" so that you can spend the rest of your time( / life) doing something more useful.
We are adaptable creatures, we evolved through conditions in history you can only imagine, we evolved through wars and disasters, years of industrial pollution and media bombardment, viruses that threaten to wipe us off the surface of this planet. We are made to last, and so, it is a choice to live on and believe in that dream, that dream of a future.
There is nothing wrong with dreaming, because only with dreams, we are able to fly, are are able to scour the deepest oceans and explore the vast universe. With dreams, we silence the critics, we achieve the things they say is impossible.
Find yourself, and come tell me, have you been dreaming.
being able to dream is a blessing, being able to know what our dreams are and to fight for it is another blessing. not everyone can do it. being surrounded by a group of friends who are also fighting for their dreams is definitely triple blessings. to have a supportive family , supporting us in our dreams is the fourth blessing. lets count the number of blessings we have :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you never stop dreaming Alvyn. You will go far!
ReplyDeleteDreaming is one thing. But it shouldn't stop there.
ReplyDeleteYou've clearly pointed out the analogy of clearing up the shattered glass today instead of tomorrow.
This applies to materialising your dreams too. Why not start working on your dreams while you dream? :) So start materialising your dream today! Set goals for yourself, be sure of what you want and don't let things sway you easily (because this will only divert your attention to the unimportant things in your life right now). And like what your friend said, Alvyn, you will go far! I truly believe you will as long as you set your foundations right, starting today!! =D
