"Hold fast to dreams for, if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that  cannot fly."            - Langston Hughes


   "Dear, study hard, you should be most successful."

  "My little girl you should achieve good grades, only then you can apply for a high post."

         We all must have heard these very often from our elders. All our elders want us is not to roam anywhere around but study hard and be an educated person on a high post and treated with respect. It's obvious because they love us, care for us,

and want us to succeed in our life. But, what about our thousands of dreams created since our childhood? Should they go all in vain? So, because of the fear of others, most of us do not dare to dream about our life. If we dreamt up, we fail to follow them. 

               Do you also love dreaming about your plans, goals, your life, and your future as I do? Literally, our dreams cannot be described either in words or any acts if we really dream without fear with the motive of achieving those in any situation. They are infinite! Dreams are aspirations, that reflect the desires of one's life and helps motivate oneself. I believe, dreams are only the key to your achievement. Unless you dream or follow your dream yourself, you won't be able to make decision about your life.  You should walk in the path which is made by others. You should be directed by others. Your meaning of life will not remain anymore. In my opinion, dreaming is really like finding our own path for success. It's the first step of our achievement. 


  Following your dreams are as important as dreaming. dreams are the newly planted seeds of a plant, which are very delicate. As the seeds grow into the plant only when they get enough care and materials required for them to grow, same as that, our dreams should be mended properly, taken good care of them and followed by us regularly so that they do not get destroyed as the dead plant which was deprived of good care during its growth. There is a saying that every great dream begins with a dreamer. If you have dreamt up something good then do not hesitate to express in front of others. It is the first step of following your dream. Attach small pieces of motivation and encouragement for it. Besides, never forget that your dreams will come true when you work hard, struggle, and stand against your destroyers. It's the true meaning of following your dreams and achieving your desired ones. Never fail to follow your dreams and make your dreams come true in your life. 

      Dreams last forever as long as you believe and crave for it. You should never give up and move forward continuously until you achieve your dreams. the day you achieved your dream would be one of the biggest days of your life when a biggest smile is seen on your face with a delightful heart and contented mind. Following one's dreams is one and only the biggest meaning of living a life. No matter, how the situation is, no matter if someone starts to criticize you on your steps, it only matters the achievement of your dreams and your hard work which results in success. When you start following your dreams, you will see a difference yourself, you learn to tackle the problems, become courageous, and develop positive thoughts.

 We often fail to follow our dreams only because of the fear of failure. But just remember that you yourself and your dreams are there to handle you in your failure. We should have the courage to pursue them and find our own way even in the moonlight. If you just left following your dreams today because of the fear of others then do understand that you will not be able to stand in front of the mirror too. Later on, the only regret will remain inside us for our mistake of not following our dreams and make them leftover destroyed. Let's take an example: You have dreamt of becoming a singer from your childhood but you choose doctor profession for the sake of others, will you be happy with whatever you got in your life as a doctor? No, because if your dreams die you would be as a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. 

Following your dreams with hard work, dedication and determination one day make you realize that who you are and what you want for.
