Childhood Dreams

Sometimes, as a child, your parents place their expectations, aspirations and dreams on you and discourage you from following your dreams. "Don't eat that cookie or you will spoil your dinner", they say. Well that cookie is your dream and that dinner is what they want for you. You need to reach for your dreams no matter what even if it will spoil the "dinner" they cooked for you because that "cookie" is really what you want.
