With me I never really 100% stopped believing and dreaming..just 90% and it was gradual. I left home really young (dreamer) and during the process of becoming "streetwise" to survive I lost 70%, the other 20% lost was slower...sure I tried different things even turning to religion but found that as if you stand back and watch what goes on in religions there is alot of hypocrisy and standing back even further its hard to not see the enormous amount of misery in the world, hard to dream. I know "streetwisation" has alot to do with my views of reality and dreaming, after going from wanderer living off bread and a jar of peanut butter to being married with the picket fenced house, 1 child and 1.7 pets to being divorced, broke and eating peanut butter again to owning 3 different businesses, love found and lost again, I still trudge on and have yet to realize any dreams, just stuck in "survival" mode I guess or my dream is too big for me. Reading my post back......I guess I really am still quite a dreamer and that may be the "problem" with me..90% dream and 10% reality...."dreams" are perfect and the quest for "perfect" is a long one for me that MAY never come to fruition....but I have to keep looking, thats just the way I am.
