I guess another year will be added to my personal information. Looking back for the past 36 years, I am a bit confused if I did live-up to the dreams I had:
At the age of 7, I dreamed of a simple and quiet life. But as I grow older, I learned that life is complicated;
At 12, when somebody asks me what I want to be when I grow up I eagerly answered it that I wanted to become a medical doctor. My parents told me that I will not be able to finish my studies if I will pursue being a doctor;
After graduating from high school I wanted to enter the seminary to become a priest. My parents are expecting me to continue our lineage since it is my obligation to do so being the only son in the family;
I was 21 when I dreamed of having a family of my own at the age of 25. I thought it is the right age to marry and have kids of my own since I will financially stable by that time;
At 30, I dreamed of having my own school by 35 so that I will have my own time to manage and a business to attend to;
I’m beginning to ask myself at 35 if will be able to fulfill at least two of my dreams – having a family of my own and a school to manage;
Now at 37, I am just enjoying what is life will offer to me. Because if success can be measured according to the number of dreams you have realized then, I’m such a BIG LOSSER (lol).
