Marching towards the dream!

There are certain things that we love and are dearer than most of the things, we never share those things or even let the ones closest to our heart know about those. We own it and if it ever goes out of our sight, we are scared as shit. It might be a small trinket, a good luck charm, a really old coin, watch or maybe our diary. Our little possessions that we wish we could take along to heaven but all we take with us are memories. Funny isn’t it, How we spend our entire lives finding that one purpose, saving every penny now so we could live the rest of our life extravagantly and abandon friends, food, sleep, vacations and to put all other obsessions to rest for that one dream- That one dream.

How that one talent might take us to our destiny and how we make every drop of sweat count to make it to the summit, swinging by all the hardships. Even when everybody else lost hope in us, we craved for the crest and failure only made us hungrier. We have tried wishbones, dandelions, shooting stars and birthday candles with our sincere perseverance and with every stride; our patience is being tested. For a moment, some of us might just give up undermining oneself and end up cursing our fate for the rest of our lives. And if you are among them; Well, that’s where you went wrong- You gave up before even trying while others were still fighting.

Our lives have gone through several transitions with the changing time and increasing importance of education. The fact that standing on your feet is the first step to make your name in this world where another billion are striving pours in more pressure. And then there are pondering responsibilities, changing environment, compromises and all the things you can blame on but is that it? Is that how passionate you were when you said you would happily make incessant efforts while you were busy building your castle in the air? Laugh at yourself if you thought it was going to be that easy!

While some pursue their dreams, there are few who keep searching for that one dream. They are born but they are so busy cribbing about this life that they fail to see the beauty. More than them, it’s the castigating people around them that end up making them morose. The world takes time to adapt to human discrepancies and find that behaviour eccentric. So when you finally try to bring a change, someone might try bursting that bubble. So what? Just because you might lack a little substance, doesn’t mean you are doing a gruesome job; you’re still trying! Routine is lethal but you, you’re experimenting with yourself.

I’ve been among the critics, in fact a self-critic because I never felt complacent. I always had an urge to be so good at something that I would end up becoming the epitome! Well, if you’re going to dream anyway, why not dream big? Like the rest of visionaries, I’ve my share too. I haven’t found the purpose of my life but I’ve started taking the baby steps towards my aim. I don’t know how far I shall go and how fair I shall turn out to be in the test but that won’t make me give up. No way. I’m going to lift myself up every time I fall and you too should try. Try tumbling upon a few things and who knows, you might discover what you had been looking for forever.

Quoting P!nk, “Where there is desire, there is gonna be flame and where there is a flame, someone’s bound to get burnt. But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’ll die, you gotta get up and try, try, try!” Keep marching.
