To me dreams are like religion - the longer it is since you gave up on them the crazier it seems that you ever believed. A dream is just some story you've made up, with you as a protagonist, and pursuing a dream means trying to bend reality to match that story, and then being pissed off because you can't
- krageon 3y agoThis relies upon the premise that all dreams pursued fail, which is ridiculous and not hard to disprove by speaking to someone who has achieved a dream.
- circlefavshape 3y agoNo it doesn't. Achieving a dream doesn't erase the hardship you went through while pursuing it
- krageon 3y ago> pursuing a dream means trying to bend reality to match that story, and then being pissed off because you can't If you pursue the dream and achieve it, reality matches the story. To not match the story you must have not achieved it. I'm only responding to what you said, hardship doesn't factor into it.
- withinboredom 3y agoIt depends on how realistic your dream is. My dream is to own a wine bar and travel the world. Unless I have something else going on, it is unlikely I would have the money and time to travel the world while owning a wine bar. I haven’t given up my dream, but getting that “something else” is working towards it.
- inconceivable 3y agoi don't think this is unrealistic, but your world travels are probably going to be instantiated as work trips complete with schedules, delays, dead-ends, deadlines, massive costs you don't want to incur, dealing with flakey vendors, and expense reports/accounting. not to mention the health impacts of stressful travel. owning a small business is the ultimate "be careful what you wish for" situation.
