Is it worse to have dreams that you cant obtain or to not have any dreams at all and so there isn’t any disappointment? Is it bad to be content or is it bad to not be? If asked if I’m content with life I say yes. Everything is going well, I’m progressing, I have a good family and good friends, a good job, a good car, I have things that I need and even things that I want. There should be no complaints. Yet, even with my life as good as it is I look to the side and see my dreams far off in the distance. Are they achievable? Are they realistic? Logic tells me no. Sometimes dreams shouldn’t come true. I’ve been glad of the few dreams I’ve given up. Do I think I could have reached them? Yes, with no doubt in my mind, I know I would not have only reached them but I would have been good at them. But that wasn’t for me. My path is being lead to somewhere different.
I guess we are always struggling with us making the path or us following the path. As humans we don’t want to show our weakness, and I think by not reaching our goals and being ok with that is a sign of weakness, in a human nature setting which can also be known as being prideful. But if we are content and are willing to submit it’s a far better thing we do to be content and be directed and realize we don’t know what’s better for us all the time. So in conclusion I’ve come to the decision that its good to be content with how life it but its also good to have ambitions and dreams, as long as we don’t begin to regret or despise our current conditions.
