Dreams, like almost everything that is part of us, play an extraordinary role in life when they are in balance and harmony with it. There are as many dreams as there are people on our planet; what happens is that many times, out of fear, shame or discouragement, we usually block our ability to dream, imprisoning it for fear of hurting ourselves, thus renouncing a wonderful part of our being.
We take the key that opens the dreams and throw it overboard, and if it comes back, we play again, and so, without realizing it, every time we take it we get older, neither wiser nor happier.
What is life? It’s a frenzy
What is life?
An illusion, a shadow, a fiction;
and the greatest good is small;
that all life is a dream, and dreams, dreams are.
? Calderón de la Barca?
It is a silent and stubborn process that goes against our nature and undermines our hope, but not a foolish hope, but a wise and moving hope: one that precisely makes us human and awakens us to live a new day, not to make another way. .
In addition, as we enclose our dreams and hopes, in the same padlock, we also include imagination and the ability to plan, we forbid anything that is not routine and begin to react with relief when the days become mere copies, one after the other.
There are people who are not so radical and who are always eager to set easy goals, goals that do not involve the sacrifice of “normality” seeks to maintain, fear losing self-esteem and trying to minimize the chances of not being able to reach a goal in the first attempt or in a short time.
These are the people who would only board a ship if they knew in advance that the wind would blow in favor, that there would be no storm and that the captain with the most experienced navy was in charge of the ship; they are the ones who do not take risks for fear of not winning and those who do not walk for fear of stones.
But, as you know, there are other types of people: those who have dreams closely linked to well-chosen goals, really exciting and challenging their abilities.
Within your dream chest, you could say that there are two types of dreams: those you want to get in the short to medium term and those that have to do with the future that is gradually being built.
These two types of dreams are fundamental, as some bring continuous and extraordinary learning and strength, while others draw the contours of a passionate and enchanting life.
Finally, there are people who never touch the ground, that is, they live more in the future than in the present, their dreams are usually very great, but also little worked and motivating, that is, little oriented to action.
This type of person is the one we all know as dreamers, souls who live on a constant roller coaster of emotions, far from the current configuration of their lives, in this sense they are great children, whose personality is generally innocent and with a passive attitude towards the present.
They don’t support the routine and their favorite activity is to start new things, aspects they share with the second guy. They are genuinely passionate about “beginnings,” but projects that end are rare. In addition, those who have completed generally require a very strong exercise of discipline and self-control, to which they are not accustomed.
So we describe three types of dreamers as if they were three colors, but the truth is that most of us don’t fit into any of the profiles exclusively, even though we can approach each other.
In fact, it is likely that, depending on when you are and the facet or scope of life to which sleep refers, you will approach more than one end of the triangle of dreams favoring its plurality and growth.
What seems true is that the happiest people are the second kind, the ones who fight to the end; in any case, it seems that the third one best corresponds to our essence and our concern, allowing us to use our wings for free.
Thus, although the ability to dream has been in us since we were born, it is in our hands to realize our dreams or leave them in a safe place, for if everything is illusion, choose the most beautiful illusions and test our wings. , for they are the only ones that allow us to nourish our freedom, sweep the sky and cultivate our spirit by learning the language of the moon.
Why is it only when you understand the language of the moon that you begin to understand the importance of feeding on colored clouds and breathing the light of the stars?Everything with enthusiasm must do what you really want?
