WEEK NINE:
NEVER TOO LATE
"It is never too late to be what you might have been."
George Eliot
I want to ask you a very difficult question: would the child that you were be proud of the adult that you have become? If the ten year old you could see you now, what would they think? When I was ten I wanted to become a power ranger, but I knew that was unrealistic, so I had other hopes and dreams. As did you.
Life happens, and most of us end up not having the life that we planned. It was probably beyond our control, and usually we blame our parents, the economy or politicians for stealing our dream away. But as long as you still draw in breath, it's never too late to pursue your dreams.
You can still go to school, start practicing or audition for whatever it is you had given up on. People can say whatever they like, but you know what you want out of life and how to get there. Dust off that book of forgotten dreams and start flipping the pages again.
