“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."

The things we love always come to be the same things that will kill us, literally and figuratively. Lately I feel as though i've come a bit closer to earth than I may have been acting during those frivolous summer nights - a dreamier time. A time where things that were so far fetched were actually, maybe, quite possible. However i found that having such dreams was actually hurting me. Everyone one says that we have to have dreams but, how do we control them? When is too much dreaming going to hurt us?
There are some people who dream so much, in the things they say, the things they think and the things they try that they are constantly feeling like they are lost and unsuccessful. Maybe being a big dreamer in the NOW generation isn't working. I mean we want everything to happen right away and when it doesn't we drive ourselves mad. So question is how much dreaming is appropriate for each individual?
I've come to believe that although i do miss indulging in an, i don't want to say unrealistic, but fantastic dream, I do prefer to live a little closer to reality at times, where I don't feel as lost.
