One dream

How far do you go for a dream? For that moment of glory? Even if it takes your entire life, even if it changes who you are.

That's the question that I keep asking myself. I used to be a journalist, used to try to write as many news stories as possible, but I gave that up to have a life. I gave up that dream so I could live, have fun, get away from my house. And I told myself that I hoped I would never have to make that type of decision again.

And life moved on for a while...it seemed like everything would be happier ever after. Until Science Olympiad came knocking around my door. It seems not that I'm so entrenched in the organization, that when my plan to enjoy a season of track surfaced recently it seemed to stoke a fire in the eyes of many.

Is a dream worth giving up everything else. Even know, after three months, I'm just so tired and exhausted from life. I think its changed me, but I don't know for better or worse.

I'm just so lost...What more do you want from me? I've given blood, sweat and tears. What more do you want? I'm human, just like you. This might not matter ten years from this, this might matter alot. Is it worth it? I'll leave that to you to decide.
