I Have Given Up On Some of My Dreams

I have to give up piano.

It's not so much that I've given up on any dreams; more just that my dreams have changed. It's not some despairing "I give up, I can't do it, it's not worth trying." sort of thing (though it may have been way back when I...

Some dreams are just dead ends and childish and they should be let go and forgotten.

When I was younger, I had dreams of traveling to far away lands to meet with lots of different people.  Another dream was to fly into space so that I could experience weightlessness and see the earth from there.  I dreamed of...

When I was young, I had all sorts of dreams.  I would go to college, graduate and find a fab job (doing who knows what).  I would rake in a bunch of money and build my dream house.  Then I would meet the perfect man and...
