Sometimes, living in a Dream world is a good thing.

Two types of people exist in this world

  1. Dreamers

  2. Realists

"Dreamers" are the people who spend more time in the Dreamworld than in the real world. No matter what consequences, issues and problems they are going through in the real world, They love dreaming and never stop doing it. 

They always have this concept of the "Ideal world" in their minds, and they keep hoping that, in the end, everything will be fine no matter what.

While

"Realists", on the other hand, are the ones who tend to believe in "What is" than to assume( or believe in) "What could or can be". No such word as "I wish" or " If I could" exists in their dictionary. They usually don't believe in Ideal worlds, nor do they have high expectations about anything. Because they think that if you can't have something, Why waste your time dreaming about it?

In simple words, realists have a simple formula to live with, and that is

The Reality is Reality.

They believe that Reality, no matter how bad it is, is the only thing that matters. 


Now that I have briefly explained both types,

let's see which one is better and has more perks.


Well, actually, we can't just deny one type for the other based on a few factors because people of both types exist, and both have their roles in this world, and without the one, the other cannot survive.

Imagine, if the dreamers take over the world; We will only be counting on our expectations, dreams, and (sometimes)unrealistic goals, without even realizing our real potential, resources and capabilities.

While 

On the other hand, If the realists took over the world. They will never try to improve and excel. Because, according to them, it would be useless. And eventually will lose the purpose of being a human.

Without dreamers, realists will never learn to think out of the box.


So, basically, the sole purpose of this comparison is to open your minds and not turn you against those who see the world differently.

Dreamers, thanks to their curiosity, interest and high expectations, are usually the category involved in most of the inventions and discoveries around the world. They don't care about the limitations of the real world. The only thing they have in mind is their goals.


Realists don't usually set high goals because they know they can't achieve them. If we see the world the way they see it, their realistic nature makes sense.

 Because we, humans, live in a world where even getting your basic needs met is a big challenge. And, in a critical survival situation like this, where you hardly get your basic needs met, how can you even imagine-- getting your high goals achieved. When you already have so much to handle.


In light of the above para, we can further divide realists into two types.

  1. Those who are realists, no matter what the situation is.

  2. Those who have a dreamer in them; but, due to the unfavorable circumstances, are forced to become a realist.

So it is clear that sometimes it's not in your control to choose whether to be a realist or a dreamer.


Coming to the point; I mentioned at the very start of this article,


Sometimes, living in a Dream world is a good thing.

Hardships are part of life; you will face them no matter what you do because you don't have a choice. Life is going to be as it is.

So, if we don't have a choice, why waste our time worrying about it. Why not spend our time enjoying it; by hoping that everything will be fine. In simple words, by dreaming.

Well, I realize that this is the perfect point to quote 

Elbert Hubbard

As he says

"Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive".

As I said, if we don't have a choice, why cry over it? Why not enjoy it.


Conclusion:

Dreaming can make you excel in life, but realisticity can help you control yourself(to know your limits). So, it's better to stay between both ends, To keep the balance.


So, friends, here it comes to an end. 

I hope this article will help you in some way.

I think dream is as much important as reality because the person who dream he has ambition to full fil his dream to be the part of the real world

I once a dreamer to be honest, but I always make sure that my dream become real, except the dream for my own family, all dreams came true. I don't just create my own world in my dream my dream creates me and makes me stronger and better. I don't just idle in one side and wait for my dream to come true I take some action. I can't say i am a realist but some part of it. It's more like I am a dreamer full of hopes with actions

Nice, you lie somewhere in the middle of both categories. That's what my conclusion was all about. Stay in between and It seems you are already there, good for you.

Lol are you more of a dreamer or a realist? One is a dreamer one thinks! :) One remember this animation where people "in the future" uploads their consciousness to "Eden Garden"; and those who cannot sync/resonate with Eden's frequency are said to have "(heavy/light) damage on their brain" and are thrown to a "rubbish planet" (as in there are a few planets occupied by the government)... very interesting animation...

I am a Dreamer (totally), In fact I came up with this topic while I was dreaming about something(lol, (not literally dreaming)). Hmm, the animation you mentioned I haven't seen it, but as you explained, I think I should watch it. Thank you for your comment.

Hahah lol yeah sometimes I dreamt of something to write about also; it actually gives me quite a few good articles! Oh the animation, well it isn't English but Chinese animation, I don't know if they have a subtitle for English or not but it's called 残次品:放逐星空 (The Defective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYgf66nmcAs); perhaps you can try search for an English one.

(Btw last time you wrote about an article about the donkey thingy, that sounds like an old Chinese story I've heard before, and you said you translated it from other languages I cannot tell whether you read the original in Chinese or another language hah!)

Right, thank you. Okay, I will look for its English version( thank you for the link).

Haha, donkey thingy. No I don't know Chinese, I read it in my language( long time ago). Btw this story already is pretty popular, It already has many translated versions so I am not sure if as you say its originally in Chinese, is really in Chinese. But I agree this story is pretty old( so maybe it is Chinese).

I agree. Many people claims some kind of story/music etc are originated from where, perhaps because that's where they first heard about it or for other reasons; but when we go outside and look for them, they're just available in many languages. Can't really track down unless there's a proof to when it first appear in what language hahah!

Btw maybe you can try this: https://kuriname.com/the-defective-episode-1/?series=31798 (or find other sites).
