DREAMER

I would say ‘never dream’
It’s just a temporary cherished desire
This reverie just goes on and on, and you build on it……….
You pay heed to all inspirational quotes and proverbs about fulfilled dreams,
Successful stories and testimonials….
And the stargaze continues… of colors, achievement,…love ……
Its just a momentary stage,
Of happiness and yearning
And then, the reality bites
Usually at the wrong place
But if the goddess of luck favored you,
You can write your testimonial……..

And for the rest, the unfulfilled dreams were ‘fantastic’ yet ‘hopeless’
Just like the fantasy induced by the opium pipe
And gone after the puff………………………..

Hmmm... Good thought RAM. Still, I would say 'never stop dreaming', rather realize what; dreams may not come alive, and be ready for that....Moreover, the outstanding few always earn from it.

Good to see u here after one month. Keep it going.

You cant just stop dreaming. It comes from your mind.

But you can always stop following them dreams. It works better. And feels better.
