~:[CH13 - Day 258]:~ The Sky's the Limit

Cervantes wrote in Don Quixote, the sky's the limit. We have endless possibilities on what we can achieve and if we look up, there's no limits to where we can go. Of course, the question becomes, why just the sky? As we grow up, we reach for greater dreams and goals. Reality sets in and some things we hoped for, look further from the realm of possibilities, yet, we still continue to dream up "what ifs" and chase the possibilities that lie out there for us. As I watch my little niece and nephew and all of my students and athletes grow up, I am always excite for what they possible can achieve on the road ahead. Some of them dream to invent, to ascend to the highest position in a particular field, or find themselves in the spotlight and my thought is, go after it. While I always encourage them to have a plan B and to lay the groundwork for a change of course, there's nothing wrong with seeing just how far you can go. Reality will remind you when it's time to adjust, yet, if you're able to manage it, there's no harm in still leaving that glimmer of hope for still achieving what you are aiming for. Even when we are old and ripe, it doesn't mean we still can't be chasing those same dreams from when we were younger. Never stop dreaming, never stop believe, and never stop reaching for the things you hope to one day attain until you feel it's the right time. It's exciting to see the excitement on my nephew's face as he improves and love to see his motivation to get better. Whether or not  he sticks with it, that's for another chapter, however, no matter what direction he heads, I hope that he continues to reach for the sky. Let's all do the same and no put limits on ourselves and give ourselves the chance to chase after all the things we hope to achieve in our lifetimes. Just like Don Quixote, let's not let the judgement of others deter us from chasing after the things we passionately desire, as while we never reach the point that we are chasing after, the journey of chasing that dream will likely be as fulfilling as achieving the goal itself.
