LOOK BEYOND THE DREAM

Posted by Unknown On Friday, March 12, 2010 14 comments
Have you ever had a dream? I'm not talking about a dream that we all experience while we sleep. I'm talking about a dream that shows a new career or pursuit.



Most people have these kinds of dreams and some people have the same one over and over again sometimes consuming their every waking moment. Is there anything wrong with this kind of dream?

Some people might suggest that to have a recurring dream that depicts a new reality is simply daydreaming where this dream only acts as a way to fill the void from a less than satisfying job and provides a necessary escape from their current reality making it somewhat bearable. The interesting and more significant point though, is that this dream may be what should be turned into a day-to-day reality that provides a more pleasing and fulfilling life.

So, why not invest the energy wasted on dreaming by developing a plan that will move you closer and closer to what you really desire? Some reasons for not starting is just that; you never start; you never take any steps whatsoever in taking any steps or actions. If you find yourself in this situation, one positive action is to talk with someone you know who has changed their career, someone who has had to make sustained effort to change despite obstacles or circumstances. Why?

Simple. The person who has taken action to move beyond an unsatisfying career has learned what it takes; has developed a set of procedures; has formulated an action plan; and one who has learned to overcome obstacles. Wouldn't it be a lot easier to ask them for guidance or suggestions than going it alone, or, worse still, staying mired in current circumstances where the only positive is your dream?

    Alas for us, Bolehlanders. while we and our forebears slept, umno/bn screwed our world upside down and made all stupid!

    A pox on such vile usurpers of decency! They shall not prevail - assuredly!

    It has been two years since I read Tempest and I must confess Prospero is not one of my favorite characters but I must say this is one unforgettable line ...

    And your lament is justified, my friend.

    Many like-minded Malaysians share the same hope as you do!

    Take care and thanks for this eloquent comment.

    Cheers

    Kampung Girl A shameless man with no principles doing pretty well?

    Well, nothing to be proud of of. In fact, he needs to search through his soul and see if there is any conscience left in him!

    Anonymous Dear Kampong Girl, Conscience is not a constant thing. It is a refinement of sorts that civilized people develop in varying amount.

    Shameless ppl like Ibrahim Ali is doomed because he chose the way of shamelessness and pretends to righteousness based on lies and delusion. This ugliness even gets etched on to his countenance - fast.

    Kampung Girl Say what we may like, Ibrahim Ali is still a Malaysian idol to many of his cronies, and perhaps to some of V Tan's close business partners!!

    His words can tell all and sundry what is in his heart.

    While many live below the poverty line, we have characters who have no qualms about getting fattened and biting the hand that feeds them.

    And the best part is, NOTHING happens to such people, regardless of whatever damaging remarks they make.

    Such is the tragedy of existence we see.

    Meaninglessless of life - where one is alienated from conscience and can still moralize.

    Sighs.

    Thanks for sharing your view which I appreciate. Take care and have a great day!

    Kind regards

    Characters with no conscience are devoid of a soul.

    And such people are idolised.

    So what does it say about norms, morals and values?

    Sighs....

    Thanks for your insightful comment, my friend.

    Take care and God bless.

    Misguided people idolise the wrong characters and emulate wrong values and norms. Once that happens, the rot spreads and can begin to gnaw at the heart of one's being leading to major cancers in society.

    Very worrying trend indeed.

    Take care and thanks for sharing!

    Have a good weekend!

    Cheers

    Anonymous Indeed MWS, misguided people idolise the wrong characters and emulate wrong values and norms.

    That's the measure of the level of decadence which the M'sian society chose to go. From the pits, it may become impossible to extricate themselves and collectively the entire atmosphere is darken and the nation gets doomed, if it isn't already there!

    If Ibrahim Ali can be idolized it also means how blind and hopelessly uncultivated this society and ethos actually is.

    Not to mention, uneducated enough to know little about human history and the many valuable lessons that we could learn from it.

    Many thanks for your profound and insightful thoughts. It is painfully true that many have degenerated to the current level. May their conscience be awakened and may they find humanity again lest they slink deeper to the centre of the earth and burn there. Take care and have a lovely day!

    Cheers
