The Achieved and the Unfulfilled
Childhood is a world of dreams and limitless possibilities. Unburdened by the realities and responsibilities of adulthood, we let our imaginations run wild and find ourselves in a universe where anything is possible. As a child, I too had many dreams about what I would be when I grew up. Some came true, while others fell by the wayside.
The Dream of Becoming an Astronaut:
As a young child, I was fascinated by space and the stars. I would gaze up at the night sky, lose myself in the mysteries of the infinite universe, and dream of one day traveling among those stars. To nurture this dream, I would read astronomy books, watch space movies, and explore the sky with a telescope. I even built homemade rockets!
The Dream of Becoming a Doctor:
Growing up, the desire to help people also sprouted within me. I believed that being a doctor and healing patients was both a fulfilling and respected profession. I would pore over medical books, take first aid courses, and accompany my parents on patient visits.
The Dream of Becoming a Writer:
My imagination has always been active, and I loved creating my own stories. I envisioned myself as a writer, crafting fantastical worlds and intriguing characters. Writing stories and sharing them with others brought me immense joy.
The Achieved Dreams:
Years later, I am proud to say that I have realized some of my dreams. I became an engineer who contributes to space research, and I still pursue my interest in astronomy in my free time. Additionally, my first aid training has allowed me to help many people in emergency situations. I have also never given up on my dream of writing, and I continue to express myself through blog posts, stories, and poems.
The Unfulfilled Dreams:
I must admit that some of my dreams have not come true. I did not become a doctor, but I continue to channel my desire to help people through my engineering career. The dream of becoming an astronaut seems impossible for now, but contributing to space research still brings me satisfaction.
The Importance of Childhood Dreams:
Childhood dreams play a significant role in shaping who we are and what we want. They give us goals and help us discover our potential. Whether they are realized or not, they inspire us and give meaning to our lives.
In conclusion:
Although some of my childhood dreams have been left behind, I will never stop dreaming and setting new goals. The values and lessons my childhood dreams have instilled in me guide me in every aspect of my life.
I invite you, through this blog post, to reflect on your own childhood dreams and strive to make them a reality.
