Story time - what’s the price of your dream?

Inspirational 1089 views 5 replies



“Is the price of living a dream much higher than the price of living without daring to dream?” asked the disciple.

The master took him to a clothes store. There, he asked him to try on a suit in exactly his size. The disciple obeyed, and was very amazed at the quality of the clothes.

Then the master asked him to try on the same suit – but this time a size much bigger than his own. The disciple did as he was asked.

“This one is no use. It’s too big.”

“How much are these suits?” the master asked the shop attendant.

“They both cost the same price. It’s just the size that is different.”

When leaving the store, the master told his disciple, “Living your dream or giving it up also costs the same price, which is usually very high. But the first lets us share the miracle of life, and the second is of no use to us.”

What I understood from this reading is that you shouldn’t let obstacles get in our way from achieving our dreams, or goals. I have to say that there have been a few obstacles that was really hard for me to overcome. But there is always a way to overcome it. It’s true that living our dream cost the same as giving it up. There is no difference, but sometimes they are both really hard to do. If I truly set my mind on something I might achieve it, and when I do it is one of the greatest feelings that I could have.

I have read that post... Its from Paulo Coelho (If i m not wrong).
