First Dream Realized

When I was a kid at 10 years of age all I want is to have a bike, I always pray and wish that one day my parents will buy me a bike, I always envy my friends who have bike because they can go to any places that they want and I am always left alone. For some reasons my parents don’t want to buy me a bicycle, they always have excuses it is either we don’t have money or it is not good for us. I don’t understand them and I felt bad because I cannot join my playmates that have bikes. As I grew up that dream was already forgotten and I think I don’t need that anymore. My dream got bigger, I was dreaming of having my own car. I know my parents cannot give me this dream, not even anyone. I told myself that I am going to have my own car this 2011 no matter what happened.  I even told my father who was about to leave us and go back to his work at abroad that I will be the one who will pick him up at the airport the moment he went back to the Philippines. He and my mom were laughing and they think that I am joking, they don’t know that I am so serious about this thing. The first time I saw the Mazda 3 car I knew that this is the car that I want, I knew that I am going to have this regardless of its specifications and price. Everytime I saw a Mazda 3 car running or parking anywhere, I cannot take away my eyes from it. I always told myself that one day I am also going to have it. I am visualizing everyday that I am driving a Mazda 3 car. In order to have this I work hard everyday, push my mind and body to the limits, defeat all the obstacles that come on my way until one day I got to the point where I have enough money to bring this car into our home. Time was so fast, everybody was shocked they cannot believe that I did it. I too cannot even believe that I am holding my dream car, driving it and parking it anywhere. There were so many challenges that I have to pass before having this car like difficulties in driving lessons, getting student permit, transaction with the right bank and many more but those difficulties didn’t bother me at all. I was so focused on making this dream happened and my hard work pays off. Those sleepless nights, those grinds, those sacrifices are not wasted. Yes this is just an instalment car but I already have it and my next goal is to have it fully paid at the end of the year 2012. Many eyebrows will be raised again and they will tell me that I cannot do it but they also told me this before and I proved them wrong. This car is the evidence that once we set our minds into something nothing is impossible.
