Dream or love?

Let’s say you have a dream. And suddenly an opportunity arises that gives you the once in a lifetime chance to pursue it. But then, this would mean leaving behind your love ones or family. Will you go for it?

Some might say it would be stupid to give up your dream. A few years down the road, you’ll be old and time will run out. You will regret it and blame others for pulling you back.

Some might say, love ones first. They are the most important aspect of life. What is left behind will forever be gone.

What do you say?

Well, there is no right or wrong answer for it. If you would have asked me a few years ago, I would have said “Go for your dream! After all, you’ll only live once.” But I guess, it’s easier said then done. Would you be willing to give up everything just to go for your dream?? Or live a life or regrets that you’ll never achieve your dream?? Would you stop someone for achieving their dreams?? Or let them chase their dreams without you??

I really like the movie “UP”. It tells on how a young girl, who dreamt of something but never achieved it. Instead, she recreated her dream; with her love one. And she died a happy person.

Can dreams change? Can dreams be shared?

What would you have done?
