I am an unrealistic Optimist….??!!….Yes I am and I am proud of it. I get ridiculed often times (actually all the time) and my dear ones try to protect me in any way possible from going overboard in my thoughts and actions. So, from the normal reality of my present life to what one should do to live in this society, such realities are pushed into my brain in a hope that sense would prevail and I would (like everyone else) get into the mode of living a “normal sane life”and tread the path that many before me have followed. But then that little voice inside me, that spark of creativity playfully like a child smiles and tells me “We will make it one day,Girl!! Hold on!!.
I know you must be thinking, “Yea, we got the voice too but we got to go to work tomorrow & everyday for the good part of our lives, work hard, earn money, pay off loans, and dream of a brighter future for our kids”. Well, I say I am no different, I will go to work too, juggle with people, spring in a new idea to my boss and try to get a raise. But hey, how long can you really keep up with that?! Be honest to yourself if not to anyone else.
We all have an alter reality, a creativity which keeps on reminding us of “what ifs?”. No, they aren’t distractions, they are who we really are!!
Now, I am not saying give up your jobs and pursue your passions. We are all scared of doing something different, of…failing..but we are missing out on the experiences our creativity has to offer. Don’t give up on it! Pursue it everyday in any tiny way possible. Nothing is impossible until we give up on it. Make SMART goals for your passions too. Who knows where they will lead us. Have courage, have patience, have faith.

Love the post and can’t agree with you more regarding pursuing your creativity.
I just created my first blog last night that filled with creativity. I like to think of myself as a lyrical rhymist and it has def helped relieve some stress as well!

I agree. I have struggled with juggling “real life” and who I really am (creative and independent-minded). Creativity and individual uniqueness are part of being human, yet our societal structure seems to demand that we conform to a standard shoe size.

Wow – Everything you wrote really resonates with me. Creativity is so important and the more we can allow our creativity to thrive, the happier and more connected we become to ourselves. Preach it, sister!

Loved this post! I’m unrealistic dreamer too. I quit my job to write and now I’ve published my first novel. We need more unrealistic dreamers like you, so keep creating the life you want for yourself.
