A Dream within a Dream




When we are young, we are attracted/bamboozled/misled by many things....sometimes, so much that we think it wld be the most cool thing that cld happen to us.....more often than not, they happen to be materialistic in nature....sometimes, we even crave for a certain sort of lifestyle.....or a certain kind of personality.....n we dream on............


With time...experience...and ofcrs, wisdom that comes along with it........they become more like an illusion....i.e. as soon as we are close to achieving them, they suddenly seem not so great......we understand that the pros and cons of the lifestyles/ppl we wanted to become....and realise that we have to give up a part of ourselves to be like that......n its simply not worth it.....we keep on changing our dreams.......n move higher on the "Dream Hierarchy" :) ....where we now look at self actualization dreams....

Well, this is what shld happen ideally.....but there are possible loopholes along the way...which most ppl ard succumb to...they are so enamoured by the dream they had when they were young that it becomes their reality...'n they embark on a no-stop approach towards it....they totally lose the sense of who they are...and end of succeding in gettin what they deisred....but if they have sacriificed everthing else on they way to achieving it.....it really wasn't worth it....cos yu've become a totally different person now....someone yu wld have hated 5 yrs ago.....


And here, we're not even thinkin of the dreams of the unprivilaged ones....the actual needy ones....not the ones who will soon be gettin 49.5% reservation...like each one of us, god gives them the gift to dream too....n thoughts arrive from all directions.....beautiful thoughts, lovely days....but he's intelligent enuf to just let them go....n life goes on...dreamin that someday he'll atleast start living....rather than merely existing.
