Dreams can be the reason you wake up in the morning...
Everyone has dreams. These lofty, often unattainable goals we've set for ourself. Become a rockstar. International movie star. Be a millionaire. Win the lottery. Find true love. Just be happy.
"Dream on, dream on, dream on, dream until your dream comes true"
This song sounds so powerful and inspiring. It must sound a lot different to someone twice, three times my age realizing most of their life has passed them by and if their dream hasn't come true, it likely never will.
My dream is that I have always wanted to be a rockstar. I'm still young but almost every part of me knows it will never happen. Still there's that small part that lights up every time I hear music that moves me, that puts together set lists, that lets me hear the song a little differently - how I would have done it had it been me playing the drums in that studio. I don't even have a drum set in Vancouver - talk about unrealistic. But still I spend a lot of my day dreaming.
No one taught us how to dream, it's just something humans instinctively do. So then how come we aren't born with some kind of defense mechanism for when we realize they won't ever come true?
Dreams can be the reason you wake up in the morning....
They can also be the reason you find yourself unable to leave your bed day after day.
