Hibernating

We are all born in different circumstances, that is because the decisions we make in the past, but we are not condemned to live forever in them. We can rise above them, if not repeat the things we bring to those circumstances. As Jesus said when he cured the blind, "Go and sin no more," I personally do not like the word sin, so instead I call mistakes. We made many mistakes and those mistakes have dragged us to the conditions we now live. Fortunately, the errors can be corrected, we can correct them and prevent their effects. Not only that, we can start working to build our dreams. We have spent a long time may Hibernating without going anywhere. Studying for a good job, setting up a business to survive.

Then there is a difference between thinking activity in an idea and bringing that idea to reality visible and tangible. I ask you, you are sufficiently committed your life to fight for your dreams, or prefer to be the storehouse of dreams where many are saved. If there is a warehouse used to store all the desires of each individual, I'm sure would be full of unrealized fantasies. But I for my part I will not let my dreams go down the drain, since I came to this kind of knowledge, I realized that you can achieve anything you want.
