Echoes from the distant dream
Encumbered forever by desire and ambitionThere's a hunger still unsatisfiedOur weary eyes will stray to the horizonThough down this road we've been hundred times
- Pink Floyd
When you walk the long path of chasing a distant dream, you not only face the physical barriers, but the mental walls too.
You often end up questioning yourself that the pain, the ordeals are truly worth it, specially when the destination is not in sight. We all have one thing in common, despite our financial, mental or physical strengths, we all have limited number of hours in a day and we don't want to watch if wash away in chasing something that we are not confident about.
We must choose our path very cautiously, as we may end up walking the wrong road for a long time before we realize that we truly are lost and far from the destination.
But again like other ironies of life, this too is a sarcastic one. The destination haunts us in our dreams, talking to us in a way that we think a lot about them in our waking state. Specially the dreams that we have given up on, they haunt us the most. Our minds end up playing what-if games or building the regret castles in our heads where we see ourselves as a failure.
I too have many given-up dreams in my baggage and I too carry the coffins of dead dreams with me, but I no longer want to carry more coffins. I want to dream one big thing and burn all my energy into chasing it. Go all in and see how and where I stand.
All I need is a dream! a destination in my mind with a crystal clear clarity on it.
Hope it comes to me soon!
