Lost in her own world, a kid on sea shore is building a sand castle. The oohs and aah's of the surrounding real world does not affect her focus. Little does she know that her castle can be swept away by the mighty ocean with a single wave. No wonder childhood dreams being free of inhibitions are always grand!
The will to act on intuition coupled with confidence and ignorance drives us to dream big and cruise through life in early stages. Heart is the captain, Head the commander and life is fun! All college choices which shape our careers are made by simply following one's heart. For example, my hatred of biology was a good enough reason to opt for engineering courses in junior college itself thereby closing all the medicine career options. And my 3 month preliminary computer course motivated me to choose Computer science as my engineering stream. But as college cocoon expires, life happens. The captain gets softened by the significant battles lost to reality as time goes by. It looks up to the commander for advice which tries to make a practical decision by taking mind boggling real world parameters into account. The parameters keep changing and you end up as a mere shadow of your true self. Trapped in the vicious circle of nothingness, all you aspire is to stop listening to your head and once again follow the principles of..... the kid on the sea shore.
Because Life is a lot like Love. Unless you are brave and ready to risk everything, you risk even more!
