For we were a child and once dream of having something or went to a place that was never existed on the map, we tend to look for anything that introduced us to hope and desire, but growth and maturity depict that we should just forget those and starts facing the real world.
My mind is under the magical conquest at the moment. I see the Facebook post earlier from my friend at high school showing his life in his own manner, I pressed the heart-react for he will do the same in my future post (LOL just kidding). But he gave me the idea of interest to publish another article that may be worth or boring, depending on your taste.
Here his story, when we was a boy during high school, like we never talked of having a future or getting into college admission, we just let the destiny decide that was in our head at that time until we grown and leave school and went to University, we don't talk or chated for years, but he comments is my post and that's the start of chatting.
He took an Education (Teacher course), he fulfilled the four years of stressful academic life, then he realized he doesn't want to teach. He abandoned the profession he worked hard for a year, but why do people tend to abandon their hopes and easily forget their dreams? is this just natural to us?.
Abandoned Hope
Note: This is kind of sensitive and not all readers are suitable, you can pass to another sub-topic. The Topic is all about suicide.
Honestly, this is another pending idea of mine since I don't know to extract the content as a puzzle in my thought. Until I found some alibi to continue.
Abandoned hope for people is referred to as the gateway to hell. The biblical and ethical believed that when a person kills him or herself has directly gone to purgatory, for they skip the natural death of religious law.
“But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven, he is guilty of an eternal sin.” (Mark 3:29)
Suicide, some people don't talk about it for they may think of someone from the past or had the idea of in the past they are in the middle of the said experience. But for me, the more we hide the lesson inside the more we curiously searched for an answer.
In Japanese culture, teenager who failed from reaching something or the subjected to low grade under their parent demand becomes prone for abandoning their hopes and skips the world becomes their excused and alibi.
I watched a documentary about the suicide forest from Mount Fuji in Japan (Source). Not only in the forest but also in thier own houses. There is interviewed caretaker of the room where they collect the belongings of those people for they believed its rightful for them and the soul may be inside those materials.
Personally, I had this High school classmate that abandoned the world because he was pressured too much, with no concrete story. But they says its because of our teacher who punished the child by belittling in front of many student.
Forgotten Dreams
Dreaming is for everyone, but sometimes we must forget those for we had main goals to archives. I often heard the word "Puppy Love", their first crushes and maybe we had also this "Puppy dreams". Where being young is the stage where we think of too many possible and impossible dreams and we realized that it's not what we look like or we just matured and realized it's not true that we could achieve that.
Maturity is sometimes the reason why we let those dreams fade. We realized that our family could afford the tuition in the institution we wanted to apply to, we know were not belong or we cant exposed ourselves in the field, we already accepted our limit, or we realized something must worth that. Any reason, let me hears them from you.
Those forgotten dreams are just neglected not to disappear or be lost. It's just there waiting for us to come back and return.
The abandoned hopes, and forgotten dreams.
Enough and back to the story, where they studied but don't want to execute and do the practice.
Are they had the reason why they choose to do that? for me, I think they don't see themselves enjoying the endeavor to meet what they want. It's like they knew how to work but they don't know how to enjoy the work.
Unlike a relationship that when we abandoned the feeling of another side, it's rare to come back. But the main goal of a jumbled idea I had is that:
We must carefully analyze those dreams and hopes in our lives. I mentioned the suicide not to tolerate but to remind you that it's better to forget either hope and dreams just don't abandon them, for some time you can go back and start the original.
I have this abandoned dream. Actually I am still thinking of it. I really like to be an architect or an engineer. I want to be my father who's intelligent in that state. Though he didn't able to study college and just a 2nd yr high school one only. I like to fulfill his dream to be an architect and engineer, but then he knows it's impossible coz they can't afford the tuition. So I've made a decision to took Education (teacher course), and I made it. Though I wasn't able to study my dream courses, I will make sure that I will be the one to plan and sketch my dream house. Actually I've been sketching houses when I was in high school. I can seasily understand blueprint of a house which my father have from engineers who handled the house he's been working before. So yeah, that's my abandoned dreams that I've been longing to reach.
