Alright. can't stay oblivious to this blog any longer( not that I made any special attempt to do so yet! *phew* ). U know if you've been brought up with loved ones around U encouraging ya all the way, this sentence wouldn't be unfamiliar to you "Dream big. With will, there's a way". Not that am showing disapproval over this interjection..no way!! but I feel that with dreams come the fear of failing to achieve them. This is so because as hard as it is to build our dreams with utmost delicacy, its equally easy to see them shatter before our very own eyes. It can be very,very painful. Never had a personal hand at it but I can say its like the worst nightmare U can imagine. I truly admire those who dare to dream big, for the very reason that it requires a lot of courage and confidence which I see lacking in me. I know its not exactly a very good thing to announce one's weakness but by acknowledging them, I hope to learn & grow as a person,so that one day when I see light coming from the end of a tunnel, its not from a train but indeed illuminated from my "dreams turned into reality"! alright..accumulation of optimism here. ha!
U knwo I've always been afraid to tell others about what I dream for, coz am scared of being laughed and mocked at. I always thought "what if i failed to achieve them? what will others talk about me?" This was until I realised that people nowadays are much braver and stay true to themselves by being open to others regarding their dreams. But oh yes! I still hesitate.
But hereby, i shall announce what I truly dream for. I want to own an orphanage & ensure that no kid is ever deprived of good education, regardless of race, language or religion. But i realise that for my dream to materialise, I need to be a good role model myself so that others can have faith in me. Honestly, I myself wouldn't send my kids to someone who himself/herself isn't well-settled, not necessary in monetary terms but in social terms as well. Everyone wants their desires to be fulfilled but tell me, to how many in reality does that happen to? Its not just a question of being optimistic anymore, its about being practical...its about having in mind the kind of circumstances that we are facing currently. A leader must be practical & know what he's looking at. Likewise, when it comes to practicality(any such word?), dreams worry me a little. BUT....what I have to say to all U hunky-funky people out there is, each and everyone of you has got a great potential which certainly deserves to be tapped. So though U may encounter failures, don't EVER give up!! Dreams aren't just supposed to represent castles in the air(as what some think), they are supposed to be realised & become our destinies. Dreams are the hopes for a life which is truly ours. Though not all dreams may be materialised, its worth giving them your best. Don't be scared or worry about other's reactions, like I used to. If U chicken-out being afraid of anticipating failure, then i pity u. If u give ur best shot but fail, U're regarded as a hero in my eyes.

Cheers =D
