Carl Sandburg says, “Nothing happens unless first we dream,” and that is absolutely perfect. More often than not, we have to dream more than once. Some times, you may have to fight a battle more than once before you win. Set-backs, like some would like to say, are commas, not periods. Set-backs are like dead-rubber games-they do not decide whether you win in life or not. Your win is your decision.
You can, and should dream again, whatever blow life had dealt with you. You can still have the job you have always desired. Yes, you can still make that trip. It is absolutely still possible to get that degree. Whatever you have always dreamt of, you can still achieve. If your mind can conceive it, your hand can achieve it. In fact, many of the celebrated successful people today failed at first. We have their stories with us today because they dared to dream again.

So, your dream is worth pursuing. Keep the passion to pursue your dream aglow. Your dream is legitimate, don’t let the unfavourable circumstances around you tell you otherwise.
A quick question can help put you back in the dream mode: Why have you always wanted to achieve that which you are now trying to discard off? You want to make your family and yourself proud, you want to help others, you want to help the helpless, or you want to be financially independent? If you dwell more on the “why”, it is easier to get back on your feet.
Friend, the world is waiting expectantly for your dream to show forth.“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” .
