Everyone has dreams. Be it to be one of the Power Rangers when we are all young, or to be a *put in your ambition here* when we all grow up. It doesn’t really matter what your dreams are, as long as you believe in it. You know, you don’t even need to achieve it. Just let them be your dreams. Something that you can dream on.
Here is my wishlist.
1.Be a Professional Gamer
I have always wanted to be a professional
gamer. When I mean professional, I mean getting paid for that. It is a carreer.
Well, more like make a living with something I really like. There are world
championships for e-sports. They aint so common in SEA but in North America and
Europe they are. Imagine you are sitting on 1 of the 5 chairs, with your own
personal keyboard, mouse and headgears, controling your hero with all your
gadgets while the crowd can see how well you perform on the big big screen.
League of Legends. Oh. Every single teamfight, team save, tower push will
thrill the crowd. You are gonna make decisions wthin seconds, and every good
call of yours will lead to cheers from
the crowd. And yourself of course. Fast reactions, fast actions, fast fingers.
All these just show you are a quick witted guy. They are just like other
international sports games. You need to practise, and you need to deal with
pressure. How you behave is how far you gonna bring yourself. But this is one
of the dreams that will never come true. I guess.
2.Experience
the Winter
I have never touched a snowflake before.
Never. Even my mum had the chance to
experience it but not me. How much I wish that just one day, I can throw
away all the burdens and just go on backpack travelling. Have like 1 week of break and just immerse myself in snow. And
take good pictures of the snowy pine trees. Oh, snowball fight anyone?
3.Be a
pilot
To be honest, I had this dream because
being a pilot lets me travel for free. I
had this ambition sooo long ago. And the naïve(used to be) me thinks that it
would be awesome if my wife is an airhostess, then we can travel+work together.
How cool is that. Oh well. Dream and reality are always so far apart.
4. Be
in a state badminton team
This is a regret, not a dream I guess. Gave
up training 8 years ago just so that I have more time for other activities. But
now (like 8 years later) I find that I really have passion in badminton. But
its too late to train for competitive plays. Recreational maybe.
5.To
serve missionary in Kenya for 1 year.
This is the only dream that is still
achievable I guess. I do not know whether this is a call, but I think serving
missionary in Africa can really change me, or to be exact, humble me. Looking at how I am
such a netizen, even living without internet connection will kill me. So going
to Kenya is different. You deal with patients, and refugees. Those sick and
disabled will let me know how rich I am, and I ought to be contented. Dear
Lord, louder call please.
Here and then I do pick up new dreams, or
rather small goals. And along the way I do drop them off. Frankly I tell you,
dear readers, I have never achieved anything glorious. Nothing. But one thing I
am sure – through day dreaming, I do find values in me. And this process shapes
me. Sometimes I just think it is good to let your imagination go wild, though
after that you will still have to face the cruel reality.
Having that said, I’ve never worried about
my future, cos someone has already taken good care of it for me.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the
Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future” Jeremiah29:11
Rest assured plan. This is my wonderful
Lord. Dreams? I can dream, but it’s the Lord who's gonna make it for me.
In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD
determines his steps. Proverbs 16:9
