Dreams vs Fantasies

Its strange isn't it ! To compare dreams and fantasies. They seem alike and yet so different.

Dreams are the beacons that light our path and show us what we can do if we only.... believe. They show us the good times that are to come ahead. And they motivate us to toil further, just that little bit more, to reach the light at the end of the tunnel ! And more importantly, dreams are what can be fulfilled. They can and shall materialize, only you have to believe......

Fantasies are a little different. They are those grand figments of our imagination that do not sprout in the world of reality. They shall make that rosy picture dance before our eyes, ever so beautiful and yet not real. They cloud the sense of judgement and rationality, rendering us directionless. They lead us to a tunnel so well lit that it dazzles before our eyes. We get so pre-occupied with what we are made to see, that we forget that ahead is a dead end. We forget that it is not a dream that will fulfill, but a quagmire that has no escape, if we do not act fast.

It is so essential to understand and identify what we believe in. Is it a dream or is it a fantasy? If it is a dream, there will be a way to make it real. It may seem difficult at first, but the way will show itself. More importantly, what you can do to realize a dream will always be within your grasp. It will be within your calibre to do it, to get it.

If what you see is a fantasy, be aware. It will show ahead an easy way to follow. Think before you walk that path. Think, if it will lead you to the right end. Think, if what you believe in is something that you can do. See past the glittering walls of the tunnel, and you will find your answer.

That is what is the difference between dreaming and fantasizing. So dream, believe in it and realize. And you will see yourself as you want to be, as you can be ....
