If ever there was a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, it must be, without a doubt, empty by now. Unless of course it is a prestine metaphor for chasing your dreams and making them a tangible reality? To each his own, I suppose.
Chasing dreams is like trying to box under water, now a days. Dreams are like.... a giant castle, there are many windows and doors all of them stand open, peering into something new, or something familiar, depending on how far you have come in life. Meaning either you have realized what your dreams are, or you are just beginning to understand them, and yourself, for that matter. There are some of us brave enough to walk through the doors, taking in what it feels like to accomplish those dreams. And there are others, who have not yet come to grips with what they may or may not have to do, and just peer inside. Learning, if you will.
Then there is us. And if you are someone like me, then you know what I am going to say. Doors and windows get shut on us all the time. Life is just like that. s**t happens, right? And, the small few that are even more like me, realize, that one door closing is just one more piece of the puzzle to discovering who we are.
Now, there are those others who do not follow such a code, who feel the need to give up, even when one dream is unattainable. That my friends, is my definition of pathetic.
And why do I make this point? Because a friend of mine was being made fun of behind her back by a coworker, about how she could not make it as a ballet dancer because she was not thin enough. And even though she could not, she has decided to go to disneyworld in florida to be a dancer for the musicals there. That is wonderful! She still gets to be the thing she loves, what she has passion for, and they will accept her the way she is. (mind you, this girl is a twig enough as it is...) But these girls decided that she had to step down, that she should have just forgotten about it.
My words to that, perhaps you need to reconsider your own lives. Go fail in life somwhere else, where we, the people who want to make it in life, do not have the misfortune of listening to your screaming howlers....
