All Thieves


Just came back from a theatre festival at the very beautiful Rangashankara theatre in Bangalore. The play I saw was called "All Thieves" (just in case you happen to know that Imaad and Heeba Shah were performing and also that who these two are then I must add that both of them have very bland facial expressions and great dialogue delivery! But are not even a tenth of how talented their parents are)

Coming back to the play, in the introduction bit, they said a beautiful line which I am sure will stay with me for a long time...
"Kuch churana hi hai to kisi ka dil churaiye, aur kabhi kisi ko apne khwab na churaane dijiye"
(If you have to steal something, steal someone’s heart; and never let anybody steal your dreams)

This line touched my heart because I know the importance of dreams. I am who I am because of my dreams.
I always dreamt of a life where I would be living independently, doing things I love to do. I did not know how that was going to happen but I dreamt of the happiness which would come from such a freedom. And today that happiness of my dreams is my reality.

My dreams for the future help me sail through any difficult phase in life. They make decisions for the present easier and give me the strength to hold on.

My dreams help other people know me better. They can be shared and believed in and have helped me form great bonds with some people.

Unlike other things, Dreams Stay. They can be forgotten about completely or simply put away, but they stay. And they become your support system whenever you need them to be one. I wish I am able to give them top priority in life :)

Yes, Dreams indeed Stay....and I, amongst all others, am certainly certain that they so do in your case! You are what you are because of your dreams, and your passion to make them come true....that's what describes you....and that's what makes you so special - for yourself, for the world, and for me! ;)
