Confessions of an Unfulfilled Desire.

An elderly man, in the final days of his life, is lying in bed alone. He awakes to see a large group of people around his bed. Their faces are loving, but sad. Confused, the old man smiles weakly and whispers, ‘You must be my childhood friends, come to say good-bye. I am so grateful.’ Moving closer; the tallest figure gently grasps the old man’s hadn and replies, ‘Yes, we are your best and oldest friends, but long ago you abandoned us, for we are the unfulfilled promises of your youth. We are the unrealized hopes, dreams and plans that you once felt deeply in your heart, but never pursued. We are the unique talents that you never refined, the special gifts you never discovered. Old friend, we have not come to comfort you, but to die with you.’
– Les Brown.

So, my friend, never let such a situation described in the story above to come in your life. Please pursue what your heart desires and let your desires be something that is realistic.
