Dream your way through Fatma Ahmed Basharahil Level – 3, Dept. of English Faculty of Education Al-Mahra Have you ever come across a person having no dreams? Does this person really exist? Usually, we all claim of having dreams rather than a dream, but how can we differentiate between a dream and a wish? We always confuse between the two. As we know, a wish may or may not be fulfilled, and there isn’t much a person can do about it. However, dreams are part of our daily life, be it simple or hard to achieve, there is a great deal that we can do about it. Life without a dream is just akin to a boring process that keeps on consuming our strength for nothing. So, we can as well say that life is worth it if we keep on dreaming.It isn’t enough just to dream. We need to work hard in order to achieve and make our dreams come true, that what makes the journey of life sweet. Without endeavoring and struggling to attain our dreams, the result is obvious, that is we’ll not accomplish anything in life.Many people keep on complaining of whatever comes around and whatever happens, not keeping in mind that they have a role to play in it. These people live dreamlessly, and as a result don’t move a thing in order to make a difference.Once again, if we imagine a person without dreams, we find out that his/her life lacks a lot of wonderful things. He/she always seems to be pessimistic, as well as living in hopelessness. He/she thinks of life as a negative experience. He/she cannot overcome the obstacles of life, for he/she is incapable of aiming for the best because he can’t dream, and as a result can’t achieve what’s best for him /her.Dreams make us live in high expectations. If we have a dream, we tend to have an aim towards which we would work and put our efforts in order to reach our objectives. Without them we live in despair waiting for our indefinite destiny. Dreams make us feel the value of every moment in life; in fact, they make life precious and worth living. Yet again, dreams are like the fuel which reinforces us to pursue life and its difficulties. Life is full of adversities and obscurities which seem to some extent impossible to overcome. Though, when we have dreams, they make these hardships seem easy to overcome, thus making life flow smoothly and harmoniously. Moreover, they give us reasons and motifs for toiling and striving for the best. However, we have to be careful about our dreams. We should be alert about what we dream of, and not to be carried away with them, forgetting the fact that dreams come true only when we work hard to achieve them. Thus, we should have dreams that are achievable. Finally, we can say that dreams are integral elements of our lives. They are wedged to us just like our shadow, they follow us and we pursue them. But they are the spice which make our life tasty and without which our life will be bitter. So, let us have dreams of a new awakening which we can attain, let us have something to live for and make our lives worth living. |
