DREAMS

What is a Dream?

A dream could be seen as a series of thoughts, images and sensations occurring in a person’s mind while he is asleep.

It could also be a cherished aspiration, ambition or an idea.

These are two quoted meanings of dreams. In my opinion, a dream is an image one sees not only while he is asleep but even while awake; an image not of the present but of the future.

With the large population of men on the planet not many people live with their dreams actualized, funny enough, some don’t even have a dream. People with dreams are many but those who live up to them are few.

Dreams are possible, only if it is not given up on. If you have a dream you must be ready to take responsibility as actualizing it will cost you a lot. It would cost you your time, money, energy and even things that give you pleasure.

Who is a dreamer?

A dreamer is sacrificial, he can give up things to see his dreams happen, the manifestation of his dream is his desire and priority. Just as a mother desires her child to grow and become someone in life, so it is for a man with a dream.

A dreamer is one who lives each day with a desired future in view, he wakes up each morning with the vision of his dream in heart, he is relentless in achieving them, no matter the confrontation, so long it's in pursuit of his dream, it's in pursuit of his happiness, hence he sees his confrontations as stepping stones to his success.

Like I said earlier, dreams are possible, truthful this is, only few men happen to realize it. It’s no new thing that persons with dreams are often times misunderstood by friends, family and even the society. Dreaming may mean building castles in the air to it’s critics, but one thing is certain, Dreams are possible. If you have a dream you shouldn't give up on it, you should pursue it even when all looks as though it’s leading no where. Of course, at the beginning, the sound of a dream is like a hopeless idea, it may not mean a lot to it’s hearers as it may mean to the owner of the dream.

What many people do is, when their dreams are criticized, as is expected of most people, they feel bad, which is acceptable, some go as far as giving up on it. Let me put this straight, no one can see your dream as you see it, that means they can’t believe it as you believe it. Everything you find on this Earth, be them factories, companies and many business organizations, even nature itself, all began as a dream and every dream began as an idea, the coca cola company began as an idea which grow to a dream and then to to multi-national company, the car company, Ford Motors began as an idea which grew also into a dreams, these and many more began as ideas which grew to become a dream. Even the almighty God had the creation of the world as an idea in him which grew into a dream. What I am saying is simple, nothing began on this Earth that didn’t pass through the dream state. There is a lot to say about dreams but I have to drop the pen here.

So whoever you are, wherever you are, don’t give up on your dreams, only make sure it is consistent with your passion and talents and remember, never stop dreaming because dreams come true.
