Death of a dream

One of the most painful things aside from the death of a loved one is the death of a dream. When a dream dies, it's hard to move on with life, knowing that there is no more motivation to continue living it. Minsan, nakakawalang-gana nang mabuhay dahil wala ka nang pangarap na inaasam. Wala na eh. Bakit mo pa gustong mabuhay, diba? It's hopeless. You'll be living a miserable life anyway, knowing that the most valuable dream you've ever had is gone.

A dream of mine has just died. Murdered. Killed. Down 6-feet under or, rather, 6,978 miles away across the Pacific Ocean. A dream that was 4 years in the making has been murdered. And I can never get it back nor can I get over it. Never. It's gone.

Things will never be the same again.

I guess once in a lifetime, we all have a dream that's not meant to come true. What's yours?
