Dreams

what are these dreams that people seem to talking about?
i dream to be a doctor. i dream to be a model. i dream to be a CEO.
evry body seems to be having them. however nobody seems to be able to explain them to me.

are these the reason to live? do these sustain the spirit in a way nothing else can?
i dont know but i sure am curious.

with respect to dreams ive come into contact with different kinds of people.

some seem to have this "dream" but then they hardly do anything to make it a reality.
every waking moment of their life they think about this elusive spectre. this makes them miserable and leave them feeling empty and impotent.

some others have a fluid concept of "dream". it keeps changing. every other day they want something else. each time sure that this what their destiny is. its like each time the goal is setup and all u need to do is to tuck the ball in , the refree comes in and moves the goalpost.

but the people i like the best are the guys who dont seem to have any "dream".
they just go in each day as they want to be that day. dont get confused....i c people who live all the time not as who they want to be today but as who they want to be seen as tommorrow.

the way i see it this 'dream' syndrome is like the blinders that they put on horses . when horses race, the owner straps on the blinders on the face of the horse. this is so that the horse is unable to see anything else other than the race track infront of it.
when we are born , our parents have dreams for us. then we go to school where the teachers have dreams for us. then we grow up and become citizens where the government has dreams for us. all through our life the society has dreams for us. somewhere along the line we take all these dreams put it in a simmering pot(read imagination) and start stirring it. we then come up with a mix that we feel so passionate about . not knowing that the only thing original about it is the ratio in which others dreams have been mixed.

whatever it is , it is probably the most potent of all human creations. its makes people do things that they normaly wouldnt have done. rarely , oh so rarely, it takes human close to God.
