There are extremes in this world. People can sometimes take their beliefs, for example, too far. Often, people get hurt. But there is "an" extreme that gets very little attention. It is the idea that in order to settle down and raise a family, one has to abandon their dream and take what they can get and make the best of it. Maybe they take that job a friend hooked them up with. They may like the job, but it nowhere near fulfills them. Oh sure, the money is good as there is always enough for beer. The question becomes, how long can someone go in life without ever trying to break off from expectation in order that a fantastic dream be attained? Of course the dream has to be attainable and realistic. But what generally happens is somewhere along the way you come across someone who changes things for you... makes you see the world through different lenses, so to speak.
