I’ve been watching the American sitcom How I Met Your Mother which I absolutely love and in the last episode of the second season, the character Ted narrates a voice-over, saying this about life:
“For the most part, when you know what you want out of life, life often gives it to you.”
I’d like to believe it, but as the years go by, I find it harder and harder to believe. Maybe I’m just a cynic. Or it could be that I’m too idealistic. Maybe I’m not looking in the right places. Maybe I’m not looking hard enough. Maybe I’m somehow not doing the right things. Maybe I’m not meeting the right people.
Maybe dreams are meant to remain as dreams. Maybe it’s just not meant to be.
