Giving up on your dreams ALREADY!?

This question rests deep in the caverns of every one of our hearts.

.

So, at what point in our lives do we give up on our dreams?

.

* When told, "you can't"?

* "You're not good enough"?

* "That isn't realistic"?

* "You can't make money that way"?

* "You'll never make it"?

.

Personally, I'd like to deliver a big

F(arewell) You to each of those ideas.

Chances are some of those came from people who thought they meant well.

.

Some of them were just a$$hats. (No, they were, I'm not apologizing)

.

Who the h€ll has the right to steal your dreams though, really?

.

Pray that we don't subject the next generation to this mental slavery either.

.

I wanted to play the piano the first time I saw it, and when I first touched the keys, it was met with an Aunt's nasty scowl of disapproval.

.

"He isn't good at that..", or some other vomit language that family members can be so prone to yakking up.

.

No $#! + Sherlock, the kid has never seen one before!

.

Thankfully, I've gone on to do things my small-minded relatives and former acquaintances would have deemed not possible.

.

Some, not all, but that's ok.

.

Among the things I dreamed of being were:

* a goalie

* a firefighter

* a professional snowboarder

* a Rock Star 🌟🎸

* a youth worker

* a writer

* a motivational speaker

.

Maybe they make you giggle.

.

What is important, though, is that even those that don't reach the peak of their field are often living their life to the fullest.

.

So, instead of taking possibility away from the dreamers around us, what if we gave them fuel?

.

What if we allowed ourselves to ponder the question, "What if?"

.

SO WHAT if we/they don't make "a lot of money"?

.

Too many people who have money have gained it chasing money and forgot the meaning, never really fulfilling their dreams or being fully alive.

.

Why not live NOW?

.

The world is full of people who started late and achieved their goals.

.

Sadly, there are many more who gave up on even asking the question.

.

Many allow themselves to lead quiet lives of desperation, missing both money AND meaning.

.

Don't let that be you.
