Dream... Dream... Dream...

How is it like for someone who doesn't know what is a dream or how to dream? Do you know if your dream is more realistic when you're awake or asleep? You'll never know you're dreaming if you're not awake... You'll never be awake if you're dreaming...

Ping Lian a 12 year old boy with special needs was featured on the front page of The Star yesterday... He held his debut art exhibition in the The Big Apple... Ping Lian used to be one of my students when I was still working part time teaching children art. He's my student indeed but I think he never knew I was his teacher... He lives in his own world... A world where only he understand... He acted like an artist too... Whenever he's upset or bored at drawings he would throw the crayon or break them...

No I'm not bloggin about how talented he is... He's a gifted boy with creative talents and a bright future no doubt... He got this far to become an artist at his age... having his own exhibition and etc.

Is this really his dream? Or is he living his whole life painting since young but he never understand why? I saw him drew right there in front of me every stroke and line... but is it really his dream to dedicate his whole life to art eventhough he doesn't know he's doing it? Or is he living someone else's dream? Or being what his parents wish he would become?

I for one dare not dream... Dream brings hope to many but disappointments too. I don't know what I want to do tomorrow... I don't know where i'll end up or who i'll become... I don't really care because if i'm there living a dream I never dreamt of what is the difference between a reality and a dream?
