Keep on going

People have told me so many discouraging things. They didn't necessarily do it on purpose. Yet, whether I want it or not those comments have shaped my dreams, my goals and what I want in life. Or more so, what I don't and can't have. But there are some things that I still want. There are dreams that still keep on going because they are the ones that still make me want to wake up in the morning, still want to eat and drink and sleep. They are the things that make me feel like I'm living and not just existing in this world. To those people who said that what I wanted was "not realist", "not very likely because you never know where life brings you", or even "too dreamy and too out of your league". Thanks, you made me fight upfront the thoughts I would've only had in the back of my head. 

Sure I still am in the beginning of my journey to say this, but I know that I will do anything to achieve my goals. The journey is what matters anyway. 

I confess, I still don't know what those dreams actually consist of. I only have a rough idea. That is my weak point, that's where everyone gets me. But it doesn't mean I'm not going to keep on going. It's like walking on a tiny bridge. There is fog and I can't see anything in front of me. But if I look down, I know I will lose balance and fall. I will also let myself down because I will have doubted myself. Now I will take one of the best advises I had in a long time: "bird by bird my friend, bird by bird" - which in this case will mean to take one step at a time. No rush.
