Never stop Dreaming

Guys, this evening I have a terrible migraine. I do not know the reason. It could be a stress or tension headache, it could be that I've been looking at the computer screen for too long, I don't know, but for much of the evening I've been lying in the dark, under heavy blankets, and praying for the moment to pass.

Migraine headaches are the worst. If I were to describe it, it feels like someone or something has my brain in a vice grip and is squeezing mercilessly, so that my eyes hurt, the top of my head hurts, and I feel dizzy and nauseous. I sincerely hope it's just a migraine though, and not an indication of something more serious.

Anyways, I'm as determined as they come, so I am not going to let a little headache, blinding though it may be, to stop me from blogging today.

In fact, today, I wanted to share some quick thoughts, and they are, in a way, related to my headache.

I was thinking to myself this evening, and I believe I mentioned it in previous posts, that life can come at you fast sometimes.

Sometimes, once you get out of your 20s, if you haven't accomplished your dreams, you can start thinking, that's it, life's over. It's official. The. universe has sent me a message that I must accept, and I have to quit.

Well, guys, not to get preachy or anything, but I want to advise you if I may, whenever you start feeling that way- like you should give up, like your life is over, that you have failed and you don't deserve to dream anymore, that is when you should give yourself a good shake and Get Over Yourself.

Negativity is Insidious

It's very easy to get caught up in toxic emotions where you question your worth, but you have to constantly be on guard to protect your energy- not just from other persons- but also from the tricky strands of negativity that can play tricks on your mind.

Remember, every challenge in life is temporary.

Just as the sun sets in the evening and ushers in the night, so too does the sun rise, without fail, every morning, signalling a new dawn, a brand new day, and new opportunities. We must be mentally prepared to embrace each new day and opportunity when they come knocking.

I was once told, my dear friends, that you never stop dreaming as long as your heart is still beating. And this is so true! You never stop dreaming, and so, you should never stop trying

I agree that sometimes the chasm that yawns between your present state and your future dream may seem insurmountable, but this is exactly when you should be creative. Remember, the strongest warriors face the toughest challenges, right? So, yeah, there's a chasm. So what? Build a bridge. Do something. Just don't throw in the towel and turn back.

Many before us stared seemingly impossible odds in the eye and said, challenge accepted. And their creations were passed down to us. We then cannot be complacent, but we must continue this legacy for those who come in our wake.

Okay, guys, that's it. I think I can get off of my soap box now. And, come what may, I'm feeling mighty proud of myself, for despite the crippling headache, I made it through this post. I think it's a first step. As for the rest, well, look out world. Challenge accepted.

Have a blessed day, guys.

People say dream big. That's right. There is nothing wrong with dreaming big and beside that we should never give up. It is hard sometimes, but there will always be ups and downs in life.

Your comparison of the Sun rising/setting with our good/bad times is almost perfect. Challenges of life often lead us to find new opportunities. Living with a positive spirit of mind is the key.
