…and don’t you forget it…
Reality can be rough. The world is not always kind. It’s a lesson we all must learn, probably over and over again.
Most of us are raised to believe that we can do anything, be anything, and generally accomplish anything we set our minds to. The fact of the matter is, that’s not necessarily true. Hey, I said reality is rough.
This fact has caused some to question the wisdom of instilling this belief in children. I have one thing to say to those people: Who crushed your dream?
Yes, the odds may be stacked against them, but that’s no reason to jade them. If they want to be the first astronaut, professional athlete, president, let them dream.
We live in an incredibly connected and constantly shrinking world where anybody’s business seems to be everybody’s business, and everyone has an opinion and continually forget to filter ourselves…says the girl with the blog.
2WC has made our stance on the participant trophy clear in the past, losing is a part of life (another valuable lesson), so is dreaming.
The point is that everyone can’t be the best, but anyone can.
