When I thought of this, surprised I was to discover that the biggest ever plan I’d have would be for something like education, travel, living place, what I’ll do today, tomorrow, in a month and next year and what I’ll do “one day”, with absolutely no clue when this day will happen. What I noticed, that as much as I’m good on planning short terms things, I’m very bad in making life-time plans. In fact I have none. No solid, thought throughout, calculated and predicted in deadlines. What I do have for long terms – just dreams. You know, the ones, that might never happened and the ones that are completely bollocks…Sometimes I even doubt if I believe in my dreams myself. Maybe I just use them as an excuse for getting something else…I don’t know…we can say “The Dream Of My Life”, but what does it actually means? And what happens when you’d have one of those and it came true? The life is over or what? If this sounds sceptical, it probably is.
Again, this was something, I asked myself back in April 2003, but never found the answers:
Is there any “general concept” of the deadlines for dream-realization process? How long one would wait for this and when he supposed to “give up”, proclaiming his dream unfulfilled? Do dreams have “use by” date? Maybe- it depends of the scale of the dream? I mean – for small, “domestic” dreams the deadline could be shorter, otherwise – it’ll run out of fashion. As for the “bigger” dreams… how long one can live with hope, for how long they can draw plans and balance their real current world with the shaky shady imaginary one?..
