Dreams

Dreams can be a complex thing. Ponderings of the mind or achievements we have yet to achieve. When we think about a dream sometimes it can be overwhelming but before we get into the complex ponderings of great minds we must ask ourselves what in this life we strive to achieve. Wealth, fame and popularity are all certainly a plus to these but they are not always the best driving force. A dream can be anything we want it to be weather poetic prose or garbled ramblings. As I sit out here under the stars I wonder what the world will lead me to. Perhaps love, perhaps the meaning of life. No matter what there are basics that all must come to understand before undertaking the task of changing our own life or that of the world. What is our driving force? What makes us wonder what the meaning of life is. Perhaps the meaning of life is not WHAT is the meaning of life but what drives us forward as individuals. They say that great minds think alike but I think all they do is come up with different answers to the same thing. We all question our own existence but the answer is different for everybody. Some religions believe that we were all put on this earth for a reason but some also believe that it is divine intervention that make us do what we need to do. When we dream we thing of these things in a subconscious paradise where nothing can go wrong but we must take risks to understand this. James Dean once said "Dream as if you will live forever, live as if you will die today." We often take heed on the words of a passed entity but these things as insufficient in the long run. We will make our mistakes, we will lose those people that we love, but in dreaming they are always with us pushing us forward into what we can become not what we will become. For those that read this I hope that it makes sense. For some it will, for others it is mindless ranting of a child. However you read this take one thing away from it. Never stop dreaming. For what we dream molds us into the people that we are. We strive to achieve goals and in the process we learn not only about ourselves but also the world around us. This is the true meaning of life. Dream.
