To Be Five Again...


When is it that we lose our childhood ideals and fantasies? When is it that the mind frame which relates the world to one big playground of opportunity, with anything in our imaginations being possible, is lost? When is it that the thought enters our heads that our dreams are unattainable and should be pushed to the side or the back of our mind? Why do we allow so many of our aspirations to decline, simply because of the fear we hold that there is a possibility our attempts to fulfil them may fail? Dreams should not be just set aside nor should our imaginations be tamed. We should aim to reach higher than ever thought logically possible, because where you will land will be more surreal than any reality you ever believed in! Imagination and expression is what keeps this world alive and changing, so don’t lock it up, set it free and be that person that you wanted to be when you were 5.


When i was five? Among many inventive options which i had concocted for a career path, i wanted to become a writer. I then forgot about that idea for a while, busy with other things, but now i think i may just revisit it.
