The Price of Not Having A Dream

7 09 2007

Such a great title, never thought that without a DREAM so many things can happen to one. But its so true. Many people go through lives without thinking about their LIVES! Why are they doing what they are doing? Some dont even care whether they live or die cause they have no reason to.

I have just heard a story about a man who at the age of 15, was a drug addict, smoker, became an armed robbery and burglar. What was he thinking about – you may ask? Well, precisely…nothing. He was merely living because he is alive. He is living day by day and week by week, and so on. He had NO REASON whatsoever to LIVE. BECAUSE???? He doesnt have a DREAM!

Well, he was caught and jailed…but someone gave him a second chance. This person, his new teacher, had a DREAM for him…

Quite some years passed by, and again at the age of 30, he was shot at a robbery and at this point in time, as he told his story of how much blood he lost and so on, he mentioned that the only thing he knew was HE WILL LIVE….coz he has a DREAM…

DREAMS are important to everyone of us. Without DREAMS, we are LIVING dead. Take a moment now and just pause…..think about YOUR life….what are you doing right now? Are you living your life or you are just living dead? are you doing the things you are doing because everyone else is doing it? or you doing it because you enjoy it and you know the PURPOSE of doing it?

There is much more to life if you are willing to BELIEVE.
Napoleon Hill said ” What a mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve”

It is so true, many a times we all have ideas and thoughts that how our lives should be – but again, many of us will comfort ourselves and say nah….those are for the rich, we must be content…and you know why we have such thoughts…because we LACK FAITH and we dont BELIEVE!

Well enough for today…gotta go
