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.
.
.
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.
