Reach for the moon and Touch the star

Were you ever told to set up a dream that is so high that you probably won't reach? And were you told that it's okay to not be able to reach it because that's what the dream is about? I have heard that so many times and I have convinced myself that it's true for so long. However, is that really true?

Sometimes I think having such a belief makes me a smaller person, less brave at least. You almost provide yourself an excuse to not try your absolutely best. You then feel less guilty as you have already come up with an excuse to explain your failure. (NOT saying not achieving your dream is failure)  What is your dream? How big should we dream of?

Reach for the Moon and touch the Star.

Is it a belief pushing us to achieve higher? Or is it an excuse to comfort ourselves? What do you think?

Internet and relationship

I know...quite a cliche topic. But I couldn't help sharing my thoughts on this popular subject.

 Internet has become an unbreakable part in our lives. I just CANNOT imagine myself without it anymore. Sort of pathetic actually. What happened to going to the libraries and read every single book for an answer? No, GOOGLE! What happened to a hand-written letter and buying stamps? No, emails/ fb messages!

No judgments here guys. And of course not everyone is like that, but I'm definitely guilty.

I sometimes wonder if this whole internet thing is positive or negative as a whole. Obviously, it's more convenient and easy to connect and share with people around the world. But sometimes we bury ourselves  in this online world so deep that we forget the real one. We seldom interact with others face to face anymore. For god sake, we text our roommates even we are in the same room. It's funny and convenient in a way. But it is always scary at the same time. It feels so much easier to express ourselves on internet and sometimes it feels even intimidating to talk face to face.

Crazy...but there's no going back probably. What do you think?
