Aspiration and Idealism


aspirationI’m sure most people dream and hope for the same things as I do, that is wealth, love, and peace. What more can a person really wants? However, the possibilities of having exactly what you wished for are pretty low.  That is why it’s called aspiration. Aspiration is the desire or longing for something or someone. People desire this perfection in their lives so that they could be truly happy. They've got everything they wanted. There’s nothing wrong with having such high hopes and idealism.
The cons or the effect of having these ludicrous dreams is the disappointment that comes after. If you really believe you can accomplish such a thing, but it turns out the opposite, you would be disappointed. This frustration, stress, and perhaps envy would destroy you both mentally and physically. You would be unease, walking around in circles, and over thinking. You would be searching for the solution to the problem, fixing whatever you can. Such pressure and stress act upon your mind has an effect on your health. In some way it’s like a scam. How is it a scam? Well, your aspiration would be “tricked” into remorse. You wouldn't want anything in the future, but instead you wanted to change the past. Just like Gatsby wanted Daisy and him to have the same affect like the days, five years ago.

I believe there are two ways to handle with this situation. If you wanted to aim high, then aim high! But expect nothing. You can hope that you would marry a sexy and hot model, but don't expect it to happen. You can hope of winning easy and big cash, like winning the grand prize/jackpot from the lottery. But its unlikely. If you wanted something more realistic, something tangible, and wanted the things you wish to become true. Then the second way is aim low. This is much better, as the probability of occurring such a common thing is high. It won't be something fancy, but at least it happened! You should be grateful and happy for it. To simplify these ideas, is that life or reality doesn't happened the way you wanted to. No matter how hard or effort you gave, you can't change the nature's course. That is why you dream/hope for it!
