Regrets

Have you ever wondered why you can't do something you badly want to do? have you ever thought and mused about what you really regret in life? Have you ever blamed on God why this life feels very unfair?

My dad ever said "children are taught to dream so that it will stimulate their imagination becuase imagination is important for their development, especially their brains' development".

Hearing that, I suddenly felt that adults just made a fool of the children, they lied to children. That statement means that people are not supposed to dream, because reality is not as beautiful as dream.

It's been so long time for me to find the answer whether my dad's statement is right or wrong, whether we can reach dream or not. Honestly, I still haven't found it yet.

However, I feel that I want to show my dad that he was wrong. I want to show him that I can reach every single dream I have. Either I want to be wizard, power ranger, pilot, astronout, or even king of the entire world, I want to show him that I can do everything and be everything. I believe that those who dare to dream, deserve to and can reach their dreams. I really badly want to show him that dreams are not just dreams, but the reality itself. Even the believers dream about heaven and yet they still believe in that their dream, right? That's why I will always believe in the dreams I have.

But, there is something bothering me. In fact, There are dreams I failed to reach. There are things I badly regret in life, and when I start to think about it, I feel so irritated and painful. This, again, gives me the same question: can I really reach all dreams I have though I have believed in it so hard?

Time won't repeat itself. Everyone awares of it, including me. I can do nothing about those I regret a lot. All I may be able to do now is to prevent myself from regreting any other I will pass through in life. I don't want to carry any more burden because of things I deeply regret, I really don't want to. To be honest, it feels so hurt inside here.

There are obstacles I have to face if I really want to try to fulfill all dreams I have. And I don't know whether I can pass it or not. So far, I've failed to face those obstacles, haven't I?

I failed to have youth life as most of people do. I feel I was lacking of time and chance to have my youth life as it was supposed to be like. I still want to have more happiness about my youth life with all my friends, and a lover if I could get any. However, I can't have my second chance of time to try reaching that dream. And that is my biggest regret I have ever had.

There are also things I want to do and want to be able to do, such as playing music (piano, violin, guitar, etc.), finishing my KUMON's level, winning many competition at middle school and high school, training martial arts, becoming an actor or model that has a lot of confidence, giving speech in front of people to encourage them, and many more. Unfortunately, I am such an unlucky human. They all can only be done when I was in middle school and high school, when I still had time to do so. But now, they all are no more than just dreams.

This feels unfair, very unfair. Why wasn't I given chance to do so when I still had time? Why was dream created if it wasn't meant to come true? Why did dream give so much hope and purpose for people living their life, but it wasn't meant to come true? Why do I have to suffer from regrets I have that at the very first time I didn't have chance to accomplish and reach them? Why was I told to dream a lot if, again, all dreams I have weren't meant to come true? Why is it that this life always feels so unfair?

Outside there, more people other than me who also suffer from the same pain as mine. The only thing I can say for this, is "WHY?"

I don't even know if I am still allowed to dream, or at least hope that in the afterlife later I will be given chance to reveal myself from all regrets I have now. I don't even know if there will be more regrets coming towards me. I don't even know if I will leave this life in peace because of regrets I have.
