Dysfunctional Dreamer

Dreams For An Insomniac

How apt, considering the late hours that I've been keeping. Too many dreams have slipped through my hands, save some that have not been realized.
Dreamers are often seen as aloof people, afraid to live in reality, but what people don't realise is that it is those very dreamers who keep Hope alive. Dreamers, simply, are people with a passion...they do not give up, and how I envy them. They make living reality a whole lot more bearable (and colourful).

Sometimes the moments pass by so fast, so surreal, that we tend to forget to slow down and enjoy it as we go along. Revisit a childhood place, reminisce. Swim, cycle, go to the beach, build a sandcastle, take a ride on a swing, whatever it is, just let go, and laugh at yourself at times. If you don't, who will?

This is a poem so befitting the entry, I just had to share.
---------------------------------------------
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

-Langston Hughes

Cheers to all the dreamers out there.
Time to go chase my own dreams.
