Expiration of dreams
If dreams are not acted on, they expire
In my early 20s, I moved to a new city to find good employment. To find a career where I could be rich and do stuff I always wanted to do. The notes I had written on the obscure corners of the internet confirmed that I had many plans and dreams.
Most of them stayed there, obscure and never materialised. With time, I forgot that they even existed. The list of things I had planned looks gigantic against the ones I acted upon and brought fruit. Thinking back, I realise that the dreams have an expiry date. If we do not act on the dreams today, they stop to exist after a while.
My biggest fear is that there will come a day when my limited time and I look back at these and wish -
I should’ve started.
This needs to change.
