- What do you want to do in the future?
- I will open a place for homeless elders.
- That's superficial!
That was a midnight conversation between my sister and I many years ago. My sister was the one who asked and made the claim, and I was the one who answered. I did not know why she thought my dream was superficial. Neither did I ask or defend myself. I just remained silent (well, I was a gently shy girl back then. Plus, I was no more than 12 years old at that time).
But I know, I never believe her words and let them discourage me.
I never did.
Even now, being 20, more mature and experienced, more realistic and life-oriented, I still don't.

while i remember other conversations we had, i dont remember this conversation at all.
When I was small, I dreamt of opening an orphanage too. Let's not let others discourage us, every dream is achievable!
