SaturdayReflections: Dreams at Sea

Do you ever close your eyes and feel a bright flood of your dreams rush in like a tsunami, splashing vivid visions across the cinematic canvas of your eyelids? These dreams, wild and unrestrained, transport you to realms of pure fantasia, where the impossible feels within reach.

Yet, with this flood comes a wave of trepidation. These dreams can be terrifying, casting long shadows that stretch into the unknown. Inside, you feel a gnawing hunger for success, coupled with a paralyzing fear of comfort. You dread the moment you might lose that relentless drive.

It’s like setting sail for a distant island with no clear map. You grasp at any idea that keeps you afloat, knowing your destination but unaware of the path. They speak of tunnel vision, but how can you focus when you don’t know which boat will carry you to that island?

You question everything: the accuracy of your map, the reliability of your compass. Are you harnessing the wind with sails, powering forward with a hybrid engine, or struggling with kayak paddles on a colossal ship?

Every day, you hope the choices you make are the right ones—choosing the right friends, the right partner, the right job. They say you must want it as much as you want to breathe. But does clarity bring ease? When you achieve your dreams, do you find happiness? And in the grand tapestry of life, does it ultimately matter?
