sometimes when we have a dream in mind, we start to plan everything. timing, necessities, actions. we tell everybody. we are so sure this thing is going to happen exactly how we conceptualize it. we map out the strategies, we incorporate perfect planning. and we move. closer and closer. and just when we expect this thing to happen. it dies.
we sink. we wonder what went wrong. we are crushed. we are lost. we start to quickly dismiss our dream as something foolishly conceived. we vow never to dream again. every time someone asks us about our progress, we hide our disappointment and pretend to be content. and we push. we push it back down and further down hoping it disappears from our sight from the hole it left inside us. for it must not be possible if it didn’t happen.
but sometimes in the midst of the despair, we have to claim the victory. in the hardened face of adversity, we still must believe. even when all we see is a darkened tunnel with not even a dash of light signifying hope or assurance or probability.
