NAKED DREAMS

Sometimes it is difficult to accept what we really want because our ‘naked dreams’ astound us. Maybe because it is at times difficult to accept that what we want is something so basic and small, and maybe a little selfish– as compared to the dreams and visions that we wished for ourselves to see. These naked dreams expose us – if not to the world than definitely to ourselves – such that sometimes it may make us feel so vulnerable that we do not want to agree with what we really want and we make up reasons and excuses to cover it up.

The fact is that in this world that we have created for ourselves, we have put ideals and perfection up on a pedestal so high that people either chose to travel the dark tunnels below or walk the entire path looking up at it such that they may hardly know where they are heading.

Though the question really is – how long can we cover our naked dreams for and from whom really?

(- Not long enough I say) because there will be a day when you will have to face them: In tears or in smiles? – You chose.

So, look through the high pedestal, and walk the paths that your heart wants you to.

Start today. A small step will do.
