Be a Dream Star

“Time” is one of my favorite words because it means nothing and it means everything.

I used to spend much of my time thinking about time, and what I could do with the little time that I have. One never knows exactly how much time they have left. Many try to be optimistic and believe that we have as much time as we need. But what is it that we need time for? Our goals? Our dreams?

The thing about dreams is that eventually we all must wake up. Only a few of our dreams ever really come true — at least in the way that we expect.

If the chance of a dream coming true is so small, why even worry about it?

Why would one spend time thinking about something that will probably never happen?

I believe it is an escape.

Escape from the harsh realities of life.

Escape from fear, hatred, and all forms of misfortune.

We dream because some one somewhere at sometime is living that dream and many others will never have the chance to dream so great.

Life is hard.

We are all living someone’s dream, so why not live your life as if it were your dream?

Spend less time thinking and dreaming, and spend more time doing. Live life the best you can and never settle for anything less than living an amazing dream.

Forget being a rock star, be a dream star.
