Live the Dreams!


I'm trying to stay away from coffee for at least a few days. I've not had one since last Friday and I hope I won't get insomnia tonight. So what do I do at Starbucks? There are actually plenty of tea latte. I like the green tea latte. And MC said TeaRoom needs a standard baked cheesecake. Okay, will work on that. Meanwhile, I've baked a white chocolate cheesecake.

Went shopping on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Need to get all CNY stuff ready since we won't be around for a week from Wednesday. Oh, check this out, we were at the mall and validated our parking ticket just in time to be within the free parking time limit! Hee...


Shopping is always accompanied by chit chat session at our favorite hang out place. And this time, I remember the topic. Yeah, we were talking about dreams.

It's actually really difficult and dreaming is a lot more easier.

Everyday, every minute we wish for our dreams to come true. In fact, it's my standard wish to wish someone their dreams coming true. Coming out from just dreaming about the dreams and actually live the kind of dreams you long for, is sometimes scary. Dreaming is one thing, we are still in the safe and comfort zone, but when the dreams come true, we will start to realize that there are a lot more than just a dream.

Having your dream guy becoming yours for example is not the end of the fairy tale, it's the beginning of a relationship and major commitment. It's also rather scary to discover the other side of your dream guy, the not so great stuff about him and the actual feeling of being with him physically by your side and not just in your dreams might be so very different.

When my TeaRoom dream comes true, as another example, will be the start of all kinds of potential nightmares. Starting a business is definitely not going to be easy and the pressure is going to be so intense when financial is not looking good, if there's not enough staff, not to mention not enough customers and all kinds of product and services related issues.

But we just have to take the first step! If we are afraid of falling, we will never learn to walk right? (for that reason, I never learnt to ride a bicycle :P). So, if we are lucky enough to have our dreams come true, I think we should go all out to make sure our dreams are exactly, if not better, like how we've always dreamt for.
I wish my neck pain will go away soon!!!

Someone famous once said, 'Imagination is more important than knowledge'. Without imagination, I don't think that people would have dream to walk on the moon till today.

A person starts to live when he can live outside himself. So be adventurous and try new things. No worries in making a mistake because anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.
