WORTH READING 22 Sep 2006

Don't Abandon Your Dream

There were once 2 brothers who lived on the 80th level. On coming home
one day, they realized to their dismay that the lifts were not working
and that they have to climb the stairs home.
After struggling to the 20th level, panting and tired, they decided to
abandon their bags and come back for them the next day. They left their
bags then and climbed on. When they have struggled to the 40th level,
the younger brother started to grumble and both of them began to
quarrel. They continued to climb the flights of steps, quarreling all
the way to the 60th floor.

They then realized that they have only 20 levels more to climb and
decided to stop quarreling and continue climbing in peace. They silently
climbed on and reached their home at long last. Each stood calmly before
the door and waited for the other to open the door.

And they realized that the key was in their bags which was left on the
20th floor

This story is reflecting on our life...many of us live under the
expectations of our parents, teachers and friends when young. We seldom
get to do the things that we really like and love and are under so much
pressure and stress so that by the age of 20, we get tired and decided
to dump this load.

Being free of the stress and pressure, we work enthusiastically and
dream ambitious wishes.

But by the time we reach 40 years old, we start to lose our vision and
dreams. We began to feel unsatisfied and start to complain and
criticize. We live life as a misery as we are never satisfied. Reaching
60, we realize that we have little left for complaining anymore, and we
began to walk the final episode in peace and calmness.

We think that there is nothing left to disappoint us, only to realize
that we could not rest in peace because we have an unfulfilled dream
...... a dream we abandoned 60 years ago.

So what is your dream?

Follow your dreams, so that you will not live with regrets.
