Dreams

Is it true that as people grow older, their dreams become smaller? A six year old boy says he wants to be an astronaut, explore the galaxy, and make the world better. A ten year old boy says he wants to be the President and make the country better. A 15 year old boy says he wants to own a company and make the city better. A 20 year old boy says he wants to find a good job and make his family better. A 30 year old says he wants to keep his job and make his life better...

How many people actually has the talent, courage, and persistence to make their biggest dreams come true? Some people blame their luck. Some people are afraid of pursuing a dream that seems impossible. Some people simply forget their childhood dreams as they grow up and become more realistic.

Mochi's biggest dream, also the one Mochi is currently furthest away from, was to be a concert pianist. I still love piano and is passionate about it but I never had the courage to devote all my time to it because I knew I lack the natural talent and somebody could easily be better with less effort. Mochi is also a coward in the world of pursuing dreams.
