Life shakes all your peers

Life shakes all your peers. They come tumbling down and bring you down with them.

You're falling down, thinking what went wrong and looking for something to hold on to. But there's nothing. There's only you!

Ah, wait... and your dreams.

You and your dreams... And so you decide to hold onto them. They're the only thing that persists while everything else falls. Your dreams... The very same thing you tried to forget, to banish from your mind because it just wasn't rational (!), is now the Only thing you've got! Ironic...

You focus on those dreams and put your hands to work. After all, what have you got to loose, now? You have nothing else to hold on to! You might as well try...

It's tough, but you continue working on them. They're all you've got left. As you keep working on them, you realise that you're actually happy.

Soon, but not as soon as you'd wish of course, things start to settle down. Things seem to be going your way. The sense of accomplishment, fulfilment, and this great overcoming happiness... Transcends you! You've never experienced such a feeling before!

You look around and... your peers are back!!!

No,wait... they're not the same... They're new ones... Stronger ones... That doesn't make sense... All you did was... go after your dreams!!! Who could have guessed that dreams were the key to these solid, unbreakable peers?

It was pretty hard to accomplish your dreams, and you even thought of giving up like a thousand times (!), but boy (!), aren't you glad you went through with it! Of course you had nothing to loose at the time, but still... Great choice! This is something you will never forget, now will you?

Life will make sure you don't.

So tell me, what's next on your dream list?


Remember why you're here

Remember why you're here.
Remember the dream.

This is all a mean to an end.
Be patient,
Be confident.
Resist!
Persist!
Insist!

Remember why you're here!
Remember the dream...

Life's tough.
Tougher because you're a dreamer.
But don't surrender!
Remember...
God never puts more weight on you
Than that of what you can carry.
And if anyone can do this, it's You.
Face your fears,
Dry your tears!
You Are strong enough!

Remember why you're here...
Remember the dream!
