It’s overwhelming to think about what will happen if you follow a path that isn’t very practical or that isn’t taken my many.
It’s unnerving to do what you think you can’t do.
It’s frightening to think that you might fail and it might break your spirit completely.
It’s chilling when the task ahead seems daunting and you’re not sure where to start.
If you are always trying to be normal you will never know how amazing you can be.
Visualize the life you really want to create and not the one you think you should live.
Live your dream.
I am taking part in The Write Tribe Festival of Words 8th – 14th December 2013.The Theme for today is Dream.

Couldn’t have thought of a better way to end the FOW. Another great “Drabble” from you. Enjoyed reading your work Shilpa 🙂 It was awesome!
Thanks alot, Sid! Glad you liked the various drabbles written for this fest! Thank you for all the support! 🙂
Awesome message Shilpa.. Just that with the realities of today, sometimes it is hard. Nevertheless, powerful message in 100 words, and you are the ‘undisputed queen’ of these short posts.. I’m your new fan 🙂
Yes, it is hard sometimes but never impossible. Thanks Nischala for all your support and encouragement! Appreciate it! 🙂
Many people want to live their dreams but still want to have a secure life!
Destination Infinity
Yes, giving up comforts or a secured life is not easy! But one has to take calculated risks in life for the dream to be a reality.
This should be a Fridge magnet. Its short, sweet, concise and truth in a nugget. 🙂
Yes, a constant reminder to live your dreams!
Our dreams are like a mirage, but not difficult to capture them and make them into a reality. A fine write Shilpa 🙂 Congrats 🙂
Well said, Sunita. Thanks 🙂
Words of wisdom to live by!
Thanks Robyn 🙂
That is one inspiring drabble Shilpa 🙂 “Dare to dream and then live your dreams”, easier said than done, but every attempt is worth it 🙂
Thanks Reshma 🙂
Lovely inspirational message, and that too only in a 100 words 😀
Thank you Jairam! 🙂
I love your inspirational message in this post. It is scary to dare because of the fear of failure, but wouldn’t it be awesome to take the chance and succeed? ♥
You are spot on, Kathy. The fear of failure can be a big hindrance in taking a new path or following a new dream!
yup, shilpa well said!
Dare to be different!
Thanks Ruchira 🙂
Live your dream… it’s never too late to mend, or to check if straying away from the herd can do good…
Well said!
You’re such an inspiration, Shilpa! I admire your absolute organization and am thrilled to find your post in my mailbox first thing in the morning.
It is amazing how the level of our self-confidence is directly proportional to our efforts and therefore, the distance between us and our dreams.
Beautiful.
Hugs!
Aww!! Thanks for such a heartwarming comment. You made my day! You are a BIG inspiration too, Vidya! 🙂
True, fail in ourselves leads us closer to our dreams!
Great message, Shipa!
Thanks Rachna 🙂
Your post can be summed up in one word – Inspirational. And that’s a nice way to end the FOW.
Thank you Suzy! 🙂
Such inspiration powered in those 100 words! Thank you Shilpa 🙂
Thank you Aditi 🙂

Thanks a lot Ma’am. Glad to be a part of this journey with you! 🙂
The perfect way to end this festival of words! 🙂

Thank you Cifar! 🙂
superb message Shilpa! everyday is new..and it gives us a chance yet again to go chase our dreams!
Well said, LP. A new day brings new hopes for a better life!
Very inspiring. Yes that is how it should be. We need our dreams to sustain life..
Thank you Richa! Agree, having a dream is what keeps you alive. Overcoming the challenges make life worth living.
That’s a great message. Most of the time we are so busy struggling to fit in we forget we also have the option to stand out. Lovely.
I loved the way you have expressed this thought, T 🙂
As i say to my friends – Dream Dreams 😀
😎
Every line is so inspiring. Yes, to achieve peace and happiness we need to live our dreams because other wise life will be just a bag of regrets…Great post 🙂
True. Somebody said, a man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams! So dream on! Thanks Prasanna 🙂
Awesome quote.
Thanks SG 🙂
Exactly, to do that, one must be able to take the risks, for without plunging in, you would never know what you have missed in life.
Well said, Rama. Our regrets aren’t what we did, but what we didn’t do!!
Super cute 🙂 Yes, let’s create the life that we dream of !!
Amen! 🙂
There are dreams which become realities in life.
Good msg.
Yes, only if we dare to dream! Thanks Mr Chowla 🙂
Something which I keep stressing time and again. So what if we fail despite everything, we would know for sure that we would have to try some other way. We should dare to dream and equip ourselves to face the challenges too. Coz without the ups and downs, victory wouldnt be thrilling 😉
Wonderfully written 🙂
Agree with you completely, Ashwini! Failures are stepping stones to success, so we must face the challenges boldly, learn from them and grow.
Beautifully said, Shilpa and it’s mental blocks that prevent us from dreaming in life. Failure is a missed opportunity and a lesson so that we may bounce back.
‘Failure is a missed opportunity’… so true! Thanks Vishal.
guess we may not know if a path is practical unless we tread the path.
Exactly!
Inspirational message. We truly donot know of our capabilities unless and otherwise we have stepped out of our comfort zones !
Absolutely! It is said that the comfort zone is the great enemy to creativity; moving beyond it necessitates intuition, which in turn configures new perspectives and conquers fears and helps us to go for our dreams!
Beautiful work. your drabbles are motivating, inspiring , insightful and introspective. If ever there is an award for drabbles, i would nominate you for the award . you surely are the “drabble queen”.
Aww!! You are too sweet and kind 🙂
true !
If you are living your dream you are truly ALIVE
good piece of advice
Good day
Thanks Afshan! Glad you relate to this thought too 🙂
Powerful stuff again, Shilpa! I echo every bit of it!
Thanks a lot, Corinne! 🙂
