I think if having your dream is all you've been thinking and talking about, it would be worthwhile to look for another dream that inspires you to be and do what it takes to live that dream right now. |
Let me clarify that my wife isn't the girl I had the date with. I understand what you are saying. You've raised good points.
But, my question is, how do you know when to call it quits on your dream? And if you happen upon someone who has no chance of attaining their dream do you continue to encourage them knowing that doing so will have an adverse effect on that person’s life and/or their family’s life?
