Buried Dreams

As a kid, we all have dreams to stand out from the others. But as we grow older,
We tend to let go of these dreams. For some of us we hold on, fight
Through, and achieve our dreams. Going through high school, we all
Just want to be excepted by our peers. We tend to hide what we truly want to do, so
That we can fit in with the crowd. We all have a mask over our faces hiding our true identity,
and keeping our passions a secret.

We all have bright futures.. well, at least in our minds. A lot of choose to not take
Action, and watch our life drift on by like the others. As we grow older, we tend
To not take action, because of the opinions of others. We let their thoughts
Drag us down in this hole of no return, and watch our dreams just vanish without us.

In my life, I have had friends who tell me what im doing is wrong, and won’t work. They tell
Me that I am wasting my time, and should be like everyone else, and just follow the same path.
I like to say that life is not a game. There are no boundaries. We are put on this earth to
accomplish every little dream we had as a kid. I feel like a lot of people don’t think this way.    
People have the mindset where there is only one direction. Which is to graduate, and move on
to the work force, working 8 hours daily draining your life until we retire, and die.  We all need
to have hope for our self’s, and believe that we can accomplish any goal we desire too.

Fear, sacrifice, and negative thoughts are always going to be there. Every time you try
something new, it will be there. We just need the courage and hope to take that first step in to
our dreams, and we will succeed. The first step is always the hardest, but if we push through,


and Ignore the negative thoughts of others. We will achieve our dreams.
