If you don't have something nice to say...

I have found that most of society is OUT TO CRUSH YOUR DREAMS!!!

Well, I might be exaggerating...a little.

In all seriousness, why do people insist on telling you why your plans will not work? Yesterday I was talking to some women about having children. I told them that I would like to have 4 or 5 and the immediate response is "you get back to me when you have had your first and lets see what tune you will be singing then." This happens all the time to me on many different subjects as I am sure that it has happened to you.

People always seem to want to tell me what I will and will not like. STOP TELLING ME WHAT I WANT!!!! That is why the phrase goes "I want..." NOT "what do you think I will like best?"

I seem to be angry as I write this but I am not. I am frustrated with individuals who think that they have the right to make others feel like their dreams are inferior or won't work. I am sad to say that I am sure that I have done this to others as well. We all need to watch what we say when we are listening to someones dreams... otherwise they will never share with us again!

Sometimes we just need some room to dream and encouragement behind it! Life brings enough reality checks on its own!!
