Unfullfilled Dreams Quotes

“I remember something I read months ago.It had to do with unfulfilled dreams and what happens to them. They turn into regrets and pain, and I know I've tried not to feel the pain. Eventually, I end up not getting out of bed the entire weekend simply because of the unfullfilled dreams of my misspent, unhappy childhood and the years I have wasted since leaving my parents' house. I think all those regrets and dreams end up robbing us of our lives. They suck the life force right out of us until we are nothing but shadows of our true potential. I think unfullfilled dreams are the cancecr and the tumors we die from. They infest us and in the end kill us slowly. I'm so tired of being paralyzed by my own misery, unable to move, unable to get up, to dust myself off and move on. I don't want to die a slow and miserable death from cancer.”
