| Take it |
| Someone has a plan, let's even call it a dream. You don't believe it's possible. There could be a number of reasons; It might be because you honestly don't believe it's possible, but more times I think it's because you don't believe that you can do it, or are still gutted because you didn't do it... Put at extremes; you have two choices. You can support it, even if by saying nothing, Or you can steal that dream, and if you've done your homework you'll probably leave the person not even believing in it themselves. We grow up in a society that quickly beats the idea of a dream out of us. This happens all by an age, where we are left with shattered confidence and don't even know how to dream anymore. If you ask a kid what they want to do when they are older, untainted by reality they'll typically respond pretty quickly: an astronaut, a pilot, a horse trainer. There isn't near enough spaceships or planes to fly, let alone horses to train for everyone to follow suit of those dreams, but there is something in that child that is remarkeable, it's innoncence. You would argue that as kids we don't have any idea of what is best for us; I think more importantly it's that we just don't know yet what society is going to make us interested in. Everyone has aptitudes and interests; and along with those Weakness and dislikes. How often do both an aptitude and interest fall into line, and compare the difference from the early years to the later ones. I cannot know for sure whether it is society or a personal trait that tends us to turn our aptitudes into interests as we age. I would say that it's society, and then weakness on the part of the individual. It silently makes us not follow alot of our interests, because it makes us look a fool when we fail. We are guilty of it, and alot of the times without even knowing it. It really is nothing more than a selfish desicion that we make, that causes us all to lose. A personal shortage, that brings society down. Only by chance will a realist ever turn a dream into reality. Your dreams are the only limit to your success. If the fight can't be taken out of your dog, you'll make it. If not, there is something about the risk that makes it all the more worth while. |
