That's pretty harsh for a parent to say. And it's wrong. I know that some people are born with talent, but others work at it and develop talent. Even if you don't quite have it yet, it doesn't mean you won't have it someday. Keep dreaming and don't let them discourage you.

If you don't go for your dreams, someone else will.

Dreams are important, even if most of the people are saying it's stupid or impossible.

Even if it makes it even harder to believe in your own dreams.
Never forget it's your own god damn life so fight for your dreams

Don't let anyone try to tell you that you can't do anything.
I know it's very cliche but you can do anything that you set your mind to.
Most people laugh at the dreams of others because they have no real dreams of their own.
Maybe they are just jealous that they don't think they can do something as great as you.

"Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much."

I completly can relate to you.

I'll try so hard to make one dream come true & all I get fo it is how I should of done this or that because it wasn't worth it or because I'll never make it.

Don't worry! There are people that belive in you. I'm one of them!

Never, ever, EVER let some one turn you away from your dream.

My mom didn't have money to go to college and people told her she'd never be smart enough to a nurse. She didn't let that stop her though. She worked her butt off, saved money, went to college, made the dean's list and now works as a surgical nurse.

Whenever I felt like giving up on my dreams, she'd tell me, "do what you love, because you'll never be happy with anything less."

With all the respect you deserve; You are a little stupid if you let people do that.
We need dreams, goals, hopes, like ~applestrudel said.
Whatever your dream is, go for it. Show them you can. If you don't accomplish (sp?) your dream, at least show them you had the guts to go after it.

go you!

Hopes and dreams are the only things that keep people alive.

You know what? Fuck them. You can do ANYTHING. What the hell do they know? If they knew you and loved you, they would be cheering you on, not tearing you down. They don't know who you are and they don't know where you're going.

Regardless, you're going to get there.

no one can tell you how to live your life, they're simple jealous that you could possibly achieve that sort of thing <3

lullednightmare [2008-01-05 16:40:08 +0000 UTC]

It could be because they're just afraid that your dreams are a little too far off and you might have difficulty achieving it...

OR...

...they're actually afraid you might be able to fulfill your dreams and live a perfect life... while they just sit around and wait for their dreams to come true.

I know most people have this issue... but if your heart is deeply set to it, then to hell with what other people think :] Just float to your dreams in a carefree way
