that story!!
That story begins with - Once upon a time, there was a boy who dreamed of changing the world. He believed he could make a difference by using his talents—writing, photography, music, movies, philosophy, love and kindness—to inspire others. As a teenager, he was passionate about solving big problems like hunger, inequality, sadness, and freedom. He would spend hours thinking and planning ways to make these changes happen. Little by little, he took steps forward. It wasn’t easy, and progress often felt frustratingly slow. Then one day, after years of effort, something clicked. He finally found a spark of success that reignited his passion. However, it had taken him years of hard work and determination to get there. By this time, he was no longer the same dreaming teenager. As he grew older, life brought new challenges and responsibilities that required his attention.
He worked hard to meet those responsibilities, helping others and solving everyday problems. When he had free time, he still returned to the things he loved—creating, writing, and dreaming. But as the years passed, the big dream of his youth started to fade into the background. It wasn’t that he gave up; life simply took him in a different direction, one full of new demands and unexpected turns. Years went by, and one day he stopped to think about how far he had come. He looked at the world around him and realized it wasn’t the world he had dreamed of changing. Instead, it was his own personal world that had transformed. It had become something extraordinary, something he never imagined, but also something he couldn’t fully control. His teenage dreams felt distant now, like a faint echo, but they had shaped the person he had become.
In those quiet moments of reflection, he felt a mix of sadness and pride. He missed the hopeful, fearless teenager he once was, the boy who believed anything was possible. At the same time, he could see the beauty in the life he had built, even if it wasn’t what he had planned. Life had tested him. It had hurt him, challenged him, and pushed him to his limits. But through those hardships, life also shaped him into someone stronger, someone capable of standing tall in the face of adversity. Even though his journey was tough, it made him who he was.
That boy, now grown, came to a powerful realization: the dreams of his youth were not wasted, even if they hadn’t been fully achieved. The journey itself was his greatest triumph. Every lesson, every moment of impact, every step forward—even through failure—was a testament to his resilience. Though he couldn’t rewrite the past, he could embrace it. His dreams, shaped by time and tempered by reality, were still alive, guiding him forward with a strength forged in struggle.
And that boy is me!! So Cheers!!
