Can’t. Absurd. Unrealistic.
Posted on 07 March 2006 by Lord Brar
Can’t - Four letters. No more, no less. Three of them grant you permission to conquer the world. One deprives you of glory. “It can’t be done”, “Don’t bother” - they say - “Many others have tried before and failed”.
So you listen to those voices and surrender your hopes, returning to the comfort of the explored and the console of the ordinary. Or perhaps not. Maybe you hear those voices but don’t listen to them. And when the world “impossible”, “unattainable” or “can’t” are pronounces what echoes instead in your soul are “dream”, “passion” and “will”.
Absurd - How terrifying. How beautiful. The absurd lies in the depth of your imagination soothed by the lullaby of the lowest common denominator. It lives in your heart and dies in your head. Face it for the first time and excitement envelopes you. Praise the absurd. For only those who attempt it will attain the impossible.
Unrealistic - A word created to inspire fear and doubt. And adjective born to undermine the will. A spear to pierce the heart of dreams. A pretext to accept defeat. An alibi for the for the irresolute and an excuse for mediocrity. Above all, the voice of those who don’t dare against those who truly believe.
Remember — We are made from the dreams that drive us. Learn to dream big and they will come true.

You seem to talk the talk… but how are you putting these sort of attitudes into action? What have you done and overcome recently that you can share will your loyal blog readers?
There seems to be a lot of reteric here, but no substance to back it up. Again, I am not saying you are full of it, but let’s have some real life examples.
Kind regards,

Well Real, I like to keep my private life private and don’t really divulge specific details. However I know were it is coming from.
Let’s just say that most of the stuff that I talk about comes from my personal experiences and some are just thoughts that again come from all that I have faced.
Unfortunately, you may agree to disagree with me about it but, it is going to remain this way only.
And I honestly think that it is just some Pep talk that might help someone. But each to his own.

BTW if you missed it, this piece was intended to be more poetic than a logical article.
