Chasing Dreams

I heard Geri's song on Class 95 today, immediately posted onto Facebook and tagged her. But knowing her, it may be Christmas before she may finally see the tag.

The question about what would you want to do, if money is not an issue, I would always think about Geri. Ever since I had been playing as a junior under her, we would always know that Geri liked to sing and write songs. I still remember some of the other older seniors were skeptical  about the sustainability of being an artiste in Singapore. But that doesn't stop her from having one Number 1 hit . And funding her own album. All the time while she is officially still a personal trainer by profession. We missed her sometimes when she couldn't come down for games, the older seniors teased her for caring about her clients more than her team mates..and life went on.

We just celebrated Geri's birthday recently, and she announced that she is likely going to sign on as a song writer.

That's really coming a long way, and never a time did she think that she would let go of her dreams, to do something that she had always wanted to do since young (well, maybe she could have deal with her issues and get down to it last time, but that is another story - nothing is ever too late).

I wonder how many people get to live out their dreams in their lifetime.

I wonder how many people even know what their dreams are, clouded by the realism and demand for practicality that is life, and eventually forgotten.

能活出自己的梦想,是幸福的。
