the power of dreams
Keep your dreams alive and be happy
when i was younger nothing seemed impossible
and i was happy and enthusiastic full of
optomisiam, working was great because i had
dreams ,and working was how i was going to
acheive those dreams, i saved up for my first
car,it was a hillman minks, it had no radio
but i had a portable tape player and a few tapes,
and i loved it ,i saved for a stereo system
much to the annoyance of the people next door,
i never minded going to work in fact i loved it,
it allowed me to do the things i wanted to,
then i got someone pregnant and i moved into a
flat less than 2 years on we had our second,
and things changed, i now had to work to put
food on the table i had to pay the bills,
dont get me wrong here i loved my children
and my missus dearly and i made a comfortable
home for us all, but i kinda stopped dreaming,
or at least i started to question my dreams,
i wanted things but i had to consider the other
people now in my life,and so in reality they weren't
my dreams any more they were compromises, i wanted
a sports car ,i got a sensible family saloon,
i want to go abroad for a hoiliday ,i went to butlins
i wanted the latest stereo and tv, i didnt get it
i couldn't justify spending that sort of money
when there were children that needed stuff,
i stopped dreaming and started counting the penn
ys,
over time i gradually stopped having dreams ,
when i did the cost would become a issue or there
always seemed to be something of a practical nature
that i would have to give priority to,
work was no longer a way to acheive my goals,
but a mundane nessesity and i started to dread it
i no longer jumped out of bed in the morning,
i couldnt wait for work to finish, i was unhappy
coming home to my practical exsitence in my sensible
family saloon,i never seemed to have any money,i was now
just a drone, no more dreams of my own. i had stopped
well whats the point of winding myself up over
what i cant have,accept things as they are and live
with it, life became a drag money became a issue,
i fought with the missus and we ended up parting.
i had lost myself it was a gradual process and i hadn't
noticed it happening,i was misarable and i had no
freinds well who want to be around a misery guts,
i didn,t even know who i was any more and i didnt
know where to start looking, everday was a drag i
hated work i hated everthing,i was definately unhappy
and it lasted for 10 years i became a virtual reclouse
i had no time for anyone, it was a dark time for sure,
but then some thing happened i started to dream again
i wanted things i remembered i had dreamed of traveling
my brother had told me stories of tailand india australia
and i decide one day that i would go ,almost straight
away work didn,t seem so bad i started to smile
again old freinds stated to visit me once more,
i had a wonderfull time in tailand, and when i got
home i was already planning my next trip india was my dream
and i was now happy and greatfull to work,
i met my current partner in goa and we have 2 more kids,
but things are different now ,sure we have our ups and downs but i have learnt something dont give up your dreams
like the old song says you've got to have a dream cos if you dont have a dream how you gonna make a dream come true,
i still have bills and small children but i,m not a drone
any more i have got my dreams back and life is good,
so dont be afraid to dream and never give up your
dreams for any body or any thing or you will be sorry
