I know I am moving on with age when I have come to terms with the fact that some dreams are not meant to be fulfilled. Up till now, I harbor ambitions that I could still go to the space, be an aerospace engineer, study in MIT and be a doctor, to name a few. Lately, I realize that I may never be an aerospace engineer or study in MIT because I am not cut for it. I cannot be a doctor because time does not permit, and mainly because my priorities have changed. Some days, I think that I am simply giving excuses for myself to work less hard to achieve certain goals. Some days, I feel that these dreams are impossible.
Some days, the doors are closed and I could only be an outsider, looking in and wishing I could be a part of them.
