Dreams

There are some dreams that you just have to let go of. Maybe you out grow them. Maybe they are no longer healthy for you and your family. Why hurt your family over a dream? I have learned that lesson sooo very well over the last few years. And yes I do believe I am letting go of a dream but I am also helping another by doing this. In the end, my family is the one that is either hurt or wins. I have to do what is best for my family. My father once taught me this lesson and at the time I didnt realize it. He sold something he loved (and dreamed of using for his other dream) so that he could help pay for my schooling. At the time I thought nothing of it really. But now looking back he did what he thought in the end would be better for his family. We all have to grow up at some point and realize the world does not revolve around us. My oldest dream is having a family that knows they are loved. Im scared that if I keep trying for this other dream I have that I will never achieve my first. I sometimes wonder if it didnt already help destroy one. I cant change past mistakes but I can take action not to repeat the same mistakes again. A dream for a dream. Not a bad thing.

it is worth chasing your dreams but I realize now that some dreams are not worth chasing. I want more from life then chasing that dream can ever give me. letting go of a dream is not a bad thing. Its only bad if you let it be. What I am gaining from letting go is way more worth it. when a dream stops making you happy it is no longer a dream but a nightmare.

thats very true and I really agree with you... I've found out that some some dreams are wrong and can be harmful. I now live life day by day with no expectations
