A Dream Come True

I was watching the Pinoy Dream Academy finale yesterday. Actually hindi ko naman talaga nasusubaybayan yun pero I have a pretty good idea of the final 6 contestants. As usual natalbugan na naman ng ABS-CBN ang GMA pagdating sa mga finale (remember the less spectacular Pinoy Idol finale?) Anyway, maybe it's the show's title that made it more appealing to a lot of audience. Everyone loves to dream..in Filipino is "mangarap". I was pretty overwhelmed as the show was nearing its closure. I was crying a lot! Mababaw lang kasi talaga ang luha ko. I voted for Bugoy actually (second place sya), feeling ko kasi mas kailangan nya yung money and everything (house and lot, water business). Being the ultimate dreamer that he is, we can learn a thing or two from him. Just like what he shouted, "kahit simpleng tao, pwedeng mangarap" or in more familiar phrase, "hindi masamang mangarap".

All of us have dreams, whether its to have your own business, to travel around the world, to be promoted, or to possess something we want. Are dreams just a product of our imagination? or a temporary scapegoat from our reality full of problems and worries? I myself have dreams, but after watching PDA, it only confirms the fact that dreams do come true! But dreams don't just happen, it is a fruit a well sowned labor. So how can we become ultimate dreamers?

-Is it achievable? - of course it must be possible and feasible. So don't expect to become a superhero in the near future.

-Know your strengths and weaknesses - by knowing yourself you can then choose the right path or even the "easiest" path in achieving your dream.

-Plan and Focus - all activities should be directed in moving you closer to your dreams.

-Pray hard! - we can not do it without His help. And eventhough God is not answering our prayers everytime, always remember that He has better dreams for all of us.

So never stop dreaming! (we're humans afterall..) And go chase your dream, don't let the dream chase you. ^^

I've been away from my Mom for 7 years :( But that would be my ultimate dream, to be with her again :)
