Dare

Take The Chance

breaking free, I dare
to dream far beyond the stars
time to take the chance

Today, we were asked to finish the sentence:

“Life is too short to __________”.

Here is my answer:

Life is too short to wait for chances to find you – forge your own way. I have no time for small dreams, that do not inspire, rather I dream big, and if I fall short of some of them, I still came a heck of a lot further than someone who dreamed small.

Do you dream big? Do you take actions toward goals that inspire you, motivate you, make you think of possibilities? And (more importantly), do you have a reason to follow through on them, something that propels you to take actions every single day?

Mine is simple:

I want to live my dreams to inspire my children to live theirs. If I can achieve what I want, they at least will see that there is a possibility for them to achieve their own, and forge their own way. Remember, we need more people on fire in this world, not more people who wait for things to happen to them.
