Follow your dreams!

We all dream – dream to be something else than what we are. Are we not satisfied? When will we be satisfied with what we have? Probably that moment would coincide with the time when we stop growing. We dream not only with sleeping eyes but with open eyes, with all our heart. Paulo Coelho in his international bestseller ‘The Alchemist’ has given the subtitle: ‘A magical fable about following your dream’. The ‘Author’s Note’ in the beginning of the book is simply marvelous. He stresses on the need to be aware of the personal calling. He quotes Oscar Wilde’s statement: “Each man kills the thing he loves”.
Today we are so engrossed with the materialistic bindings that we fail to lend an ear to the personal calling. We are made deaf by the ear shattering noise of the modern day mechanical tidings of our life. Let’s give it a thought! Assess your life today, lest our dreams may fly away leaving us high and dry. A life without dreams is life a desert. Dream your way to happiness, for they are the haven for our tired souls!
