If you truly want to follow your dreams simply look down at your feet. Unless the mind settles and there’s awareness of this, life will never be truly lived because you’ll be caught in the story of needing a dream…
Many attach to the saying “Follow your dreams” but if this is looked closely you would see how this holds you in captivity to the thinking that the dream is needed for happiness. The issue with this is when you‘re following the story of a so called dream, the reality of what’s happening right now just passes you by. This doesn’t mean you can’t have dreams, just realize a dream is nothing but a story and even if it happens exactly as it’s wanted, thinking the dream will make you happy not the dream itself is the story. This falls in line with the grass is greener on the other side, until it’s realized there is no other side.
How many people make their life how they think it should be only to turn around and complain about it. You made it a certain way because you thought it was your dream and yet when it becomes your reality it’s not long before you realize it isn’t as fulfilling as you thought it was going to be. Or you were okay with certain aspects of it, but there were other parts to complain about. If you truly want to follow your dreams look down at your feet and realize good, bad, or indifferent you are your dreams. Unless the mind settles and you become aware of this, life will never be truly lived because you’ll be caught up in needing the story of following a dream instead of simply living your life…
