This is Who I am

Ok. Here is something you all should know about me.

I am NOT an average person. No, I am not. I am not just another person, trying to be 'just happy'. No, please get yourself clear about it. I repeat. I do NOT claim to be an average person, who is happy being imperfect and full of shortcomings. No, I am not happy with that. And for that matter, making myself happy is NOT what I live for.

This is the most commong thing I hear and read about people. They say "I am an ordinary person, I just want to lead a simple life, I am not perfect, I want to be happy, etc etc".

I know I am repeating. But lets get this very very clear. This is NOT how I think. I think: I am a person, yes, with finite capacities in most dimensions, but, I DO WANT to be perfect. Yes, I want to be a great person. I want to excel in those uniquely human faculties, such as morality, honesty, kindness and curiosity. I DONT want to be just happy. Because that is SUCH a vague and meaningless statement. If I say I want to be happy, it does not really mean anything specific. Surely, one can be happy by being hurtful to others feelings. And please dont lecture me by Bullshiting that, harming others cant make one happy. Because it is wrong. There are people, they can be very happy, even when they are being unjust, cruel and dishonest. I don't like it, same as you do not, bu that's just fact. Let's accept it and work from there.

Having said this, I have many sub-goals in life. To be perfect is not a matter of joke. It 'may not' be even possible, specially when the concept of perfect is not clearly defined. But here comes the other important thing I want to talk about today. It is, I think, one should dream BIG. I mean really really BIG. A dream that sounds perfectly possible at the very first glance, is a shame for a dream. Nope I do NOT agree with you that, dreams should be realistic. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Dream by definition has to be 'seemingly' impossible. That's exactly why they are called dreams. I DO NOT understand why people ignore this simple meaning of a dream.
