Are you living your dream, or are you just dreaming to live?

When you have a dream, it doesn’t often come at you screaming in your face. Dreams always come from behind you, it sneaks up on you. Sometimes, the dream almost whispers. Whispers, it never shouts. Very hard to hear. So, you have to everyday of your lives, be ready to hear what whispers in your ear.
I need you to be who you’re supposed to be because when you are who you are supposed to be, you are SUPER HUMAN. You got fear and you got faith. Decide to walk with faith instead of fear. There’s greatness in you.
Most of you say that you want to be successful but you don’t want it bad; you just kind of want it. You don’t want it as much as you want a party, you don’t want it as much as you want to be cool, most of you don’t want success as much as you want to sleep. Most of you love sleep more than you love success……!!!
Some things just don’t come to you because you want them to; you need to put in efforts and you should be willing to fight that thing out. They may not give you that thing but you can earn it, you can take it.
So, whatever you do, just don’t give up; don’t quit. Just because you failed doesn’t make you a failure and when life hits you, you just need to keep going.
In order to achieve greatness, you have to go through a lot of pain. You definitely have setbacks but in order to achieve that success, you have to push through.
If you hit an oak tree a thousand times, at a thousand different spots, what’s going to happen? Absolutely nothing. But if you hit that oak tree a thousand times at the exact same spot, you are going to bring it down; you are going to do the impossible.
You have to believe that you can do something that nobody else has done and somehow, that concept has to become your reality.
Fear, you are not going to stop me today. I have come too far to quit now.
You should believe in your dreams, you should believe in yourself and you have to believe that one day it is going to be your moment. One day, it will be your day. Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men.
For many of you right now, life’s got you up against the road. You can’t give up. You can’t give in. Listen to me closely, if it were easy, everybody would do it.
You have got this far. You just can’t quit. If you wanted to quit, you should have quit a long time ago. You have come too far to give up now. Show them nothing is impossible. Be your own HERO.

So, I ask you now, “Are you living your dream, or are you just dreaming to live?” - Pream Anand Tharmalingam

"What do you intend to do now?"

Anybody can feel good when they have their health, their bills are paid, and they have happy relationships. Anybody can be positive then. Anybody can have a larger vision then. Anybody can have faith under those kinds of circumstances.
But the real challenge of growth mentally, emotionally and spiritually comes when you get knocked down. It takes courage to act. Part of being hungry when you have been defeated. It takes courage to start over again.
Fear is not real. The only place fear can exist is in your thoughts about future.
Fear kills dreams, fear kills hope. Fear put people in the hospital. Fear can age you. It can hold you back from doing something that you know within yourselves that you are capable of doing but it will paralyze you.
Fear is a choice. Because behind every fear, there is a person you want to be.
Don’t allow your emotions to control you. We are emotional but you want to begin to discipline your emotions. If you don’t discipline and contain your emotions, they will use you.
The reason why most of you aren’t at your goal right now is because of the bulls**t story you keep telling yourself as why you can’t make it.
Every day you say no to your dream, you might be pushing your dreams a whole six months, a whole year. That one single day you didn’t get up could have pushed your stuff for I don’t know how long.
I am coming back. And I will be stronger and better because of it. You have got to make a declaration. That this is what you stand for, that this is what you fight for. You are fighting for your dreams, you are fighting for peace of mind, you are fighting for your health, take full responsibility for your life.
Accept where you are and the responsibility that you are going to take yourself where you want to go.
Your fear is going to be right there, in front of your face. Telling you to go back. Anybody can give up but the real challenge is to hold on.
It’s not easy, when you want to change. It’s not easy. If it were in fact easy, everybody would do it. But if you are serious, you will go all out.
That you can make your parents proud, that you can make your school proud. You can touch billions of people’s life and life will never be the same again because you came this way.
Live your life with passion, with some drive. Decide that you are going to push yourself. The last chapter to your life has not been written yet and it doesn’t matter about what happened yesterday. What matters is, “What are you going to do about it?”
Live your dream.
So, I ask you, "What do you intend to do now?" - Pream Anand 

The Journey Of Life

Sometimes people comes in our life, we have don’t know how they affect us. When someone came to our lives which are close to us and they hurt, this feeling is worst in world and at that time we don’t forget or forgive them, but we have don’t know at which circumstances they are suffering, it may be very difficult decision to take for them to hurt us. When someone broke our heart it also teaches us to be careful to make someone a friend. So, we forgive them because the moments and beautiful days given by them are so wonderful and imaginative. We have to give thanks for what they have taught us. The strongest person, the more difficulties in life, if the life is without stress it just like a smooth and straight just like a simple road without obstacles and sand. We have to learn from it, and let it go. Don’t forget those who have given you support at every difficult situations. Everything happens for just reason. Think positive will be positive. We have to thankful to god for everything he gave us; someone somewhere is fighting for those things. The people who leave us it not mean they are bad; they leave us because their role in our life story is completed. People say that love is game. But I didn’t think so because I felt that love is best feeling in world. But I don’t understand that people why make love as game. If someone ignores you so keep in mind that you are very expensive. Most of people ignore the things which they cannot afford them. No one is perfect in this world. When we have everything we don’t care of those things but when they go from us the true value of those things realizes us. The most difficult thing in life I have ever felt is to lose someone. There is no explanation how they affect us, there is only feelings. Don’t think that someone will be with u to solve your difficult problems because when you are in sunshine everyone is with u and in night even your shadow leaves you. But in sometimes you find someone that doesn’t solve your problems but that person gives you courage and strength to fight it. Live the life with full enjoyment. Live everyday of life as it is a last day. World is whom who enjoys it. Sometimes in our lives there are so much difficult moments but don’t lose faith in god. If God Answers Your Prayer, He is increasing your FAITH. If He Delays, He is increasing you PATIENCE. If He Doesn’t Answer, He has Something BETTER for U. We have to trust in god, god never leaves our hands and forget us. Life is games play it carefully. In everyone’s life we have to take decision between to turn a page or to close a book it means we have to take decision to see next what happens or to quit. Listen carefully because sometimes opportunity knocks softly. Life takes test first then it teaches - Pream Anand Tharmalingam

I cannot be part of a world

I cannot be part of a world where men dress their wives as prostitutes by showing everything that should be cherished. Where there is no concept of honor and dignity, and one can only rely on those when they say “I promise" .

Where women do not want children, and men don't want a family.
Where the suckers believe themselves to be successful behind the wheel of their fathers` cars, and a father who has a little bit of power is trying to prove to you that you're a nobody.

Where people falsely declare that they believe in God with a shot of alcohol in their hand, and the lack of any understanding of their religion.
Where the concept of jealousy is considered shameful, and modesty is a disadvantage.

Where people forgot about love, but simply looking for the best partner.
Where people repair every rustle of their car, not sparing any money nor time, and themselves , they look so poor that only an expensive car can hide it.
Where the boys waste their parents money in nightclubs, aping under the primitive sounds, and girls fall in love with them for this.

Where men and women are no longer ago identifiable and where all this together is called freedom of choice, but for those who choose a different path-get branded as retarded despots.

I choose my path, but it's a pity that I did not find similar understanding in the people among whom I wished to find it most of all … - Pream Anand

Change in Life

I recently have been experiencing many changes in my life both personally and professionally. Sometimes we live our life in such a hurry that we don’t really stop to think, to feel, to remember to really pursue and take it all in. Today, this is my goal. I was recently told, “go do what makes you happy”, to which I responded, “I will, thank you very much”. Till I realized that I could not properly defined what makes me truly happy. I mean I’m not living my life sad, I’m just kinda living it without any directions. Doing whatever I do. That thought really bothered me. It made me question my identity and my existence. How could I be living everyday not knowing what truly made me happy and not being able to define what I enjoy? I argued with myself back and forth for weeks. Dismissing happiness as being too gushy at times, other times realizing how much I have missed out on because I am too focused on problems and among other things like being successful and independent. My idea of success is hard work and hard work is pain, beauty hurts, right? Wrong, perhaps? With that said, I have challenged myself to seek what truly makes me happy. I don’t mean doing things to just impress others to prove I’m quirky or talented, or to further my career. This is me, really thinking, feeling and being open to finding what makes me truly happy and what allows me to express myself. I have always been found of writing and sharing. I am going to start this blog by writing memories of my past, my childhood experiences and anything else I remember that I feel impacted me, inspired me and interested me. I find that I as get older and wrapped up in my busy life and goals, I have forgotten what I dreamed and desired when I was a young, hopeful, bright guy. Recently, I went to a fortune teller (that is a whole other story I will go into later), she told me many things, some accurate, others not so much. At some point, she looked at me straight in the eye and said, “when did you loose your confidence and inspiration?” I looked at her and knew in my heart exactly what that witch meant. It’s time for me to break through, it’s time for me to stop being my own worst enemy. I am going to remember and write because I enjoy it - Pream Anand Tharmalingam
