Follow Your Dreams

Following our dreams the most important asset of our lives. you could lose everything that life has ever offered to you; your riches, everything you have ever bought, the clothes you wear, even you dignity and purity... but the one thing that no one can ever take away from you is your dream.

the one thing that humanity shares in common is the fact that each and every single person has his/her own dream.

when i was little i dreamed to become a cashier (i thought that i got to keep all the money that goes into the cash register =] ). i was told to choose a profession where i would earn riches and be able to build my mom a house on the mountains on the way going to LA. when i found out that i don't get to keep all the loads of money that goes into the cash register i decided i wanted to be a writer. i wanted to write everything i saw, everything i felt. i planned to be a journalist and take up journalism when i became a big girl. writing was my passion, it was what i was good at and what i knew i wanted to do.

when i got older, i lost my writing ability and i found a passion for arts. i planned to take up fine arts and become an interior designer... but no school nearby had the course. So i took up psychology... because i wanted to find out what was with people that aroused my passion for writing and arts.

psychology, though was not my first choice, opened my eyes to what i have been so blind to see.

even though life brings us through several different path ways and we go astray from what we plan our lives to be, there is always only one destination to all those paths: our dream.

we could achieve our dream regardless of what path we take. if we make our own ends meet then life would be at our feet. we control what happens in life. while in psychology, i found what i was looking for. i found what arouse my fascination. everybody is different and unique, everyone has a mind of there own and everyone has a dream of their own.

my passion of writing gradually came back and my love for art grows more and more. fulfilling your dreams doesn't necessarily mean giving up on everything else. i am satisfying my fascination of people as a living while i continue to pursue my passion of writing and art. my dream has come true. it takes a little self actualization to realize that you are, yourself, living the dream.
