dreamer forever and ever


              “Dreams are today’s answers to tomorrow’s questions”
We are practical creatures….well most of the time we are. We have seen life …its twists and turns… and plodded on regardless of where we are headed. There is no clear answer to where we are going and yet each day we strive towards unaccomplished goals. It’s a pretty routine scenario and rarely do we come across someone who has been driven by passion to take a different road….very rarely! We walk the beaten track because well firstly…its there…it’s been tried and because we hate risks.Our life you see is very precise,very clear and its how we have always believed it should be!
 The mind however is a different matter all together it dwells on all that could have been….could still be….its not practical at all. It takes our hand and walks us through the beautiful landscape of our innermost wishes. In our dream it meanders through paths not taken without fear. It heeds not the frantic voice telling it to stop a while. It answers not to any attempt to hold it down….break it up…it just stays there …as pure and innocent as we were when we were born. It lights up with joy….it makes the heart skip a beat…it lulls us into believing in a life we have yet to live…..places we have yet to go…..things we have yet to do.
In our humdrum existence our dreams are like an anchor holding us steady while we get buffeted by the waves. they are our inner calm….our inner peace….a little corner of our soul which the outside world cannot touch ….cannot tarnish!
You ask me why I dream. I dream because it makes my life worth living…it gives me hope….it gives me a million reasons to smile …it tells me that tomorrow will dawn with all my cherished desires coming true. Even if tomorrow my dreams don’t come true they will still have given me happiness….and isn’t that everything?

  1. many times Tazeen we wouldn't be where we are or who we are if we didnt dream!
    but making those dreams into practical realities is what we must strive for...
    at least give it a shot otherwise our whole lives will be measured by "what if"
    so if you need me to push you-just holler!
