IF NOT FOR BIG DREAMS.......by @michaelcj

My world is the OCEAN. I shelter, protect and provide. I love to do good and sometimes I am not appreciated. I am hurt for doing my noble deeds but who am I to question my creation? I am the Sea Algae!

I love the prospect of being a Goldfish, aspire to glide gracefully like the Dolphins, covet the flexibility of an Eel, all is not compared to my DREAMS of being a WHALE.

What can a simple Algae as I am achieve? Even there is no spot in the Minnows bot. I am red but the Redfish still wouldn't accept me. How can I believe so much in being the Whale?

My insides feel like the real deal. My dream is a must project into reality. How can I wish to be whale when I'm whale? And I heard the Urchins laugh. My dreams has made me mad!

The Minnows bot opened me a spot. No! I simply am too big to FIT in. The Redfish came to gear me up. I simply am too big to LIFT. How about let the Sharks give it a try? Urrgghhh! We repel!
What then is the secret of my difference? My big dreams > "To be a Whale" the Tilapias gossiped.

I have to keep my dreams going. It is not unachievable. I wouldn't only house the whale but be the whale! I won't change my creation still but by what provisions? I couldn't be swayed by my doubts!

Swish! I really did sway! I shook too. What is this awakening feel? I witnessed the smaller fishes scamper away. Octopus cut its tentacles in the glee to flee. What is the terror all about? I feel a great fear in me too!

I shook, my world shook! I rose, they fled. I breathed, my world shifted! What is happening to me? I am confused! Someone shouted "He's Whale". I am no Whale, my dreams is Whale! What is he talking about?

I summoned my inner potentials and dared to take a move...... I moved! Are Algaes supposed to move? I love the new thrilling discovery. I saw fear in the eyes of the Sharks! The Ocean adored me.

In the long run, my dreams came to reality. I am still an Algae but only an Algae with a difference! My kind of Algae is the one which grows on Whales! We have a symbiotic relationship. I am an Algae, he is algae. He is Whale, I am whale...... IF NOT FOR BIG DREAMS how could this be possible?

The little descriptive writeup of mine is a pointer that we can't choose who we are created to be but can only make a difference through our big dreams. We can only achieve when we believe and can only believe when we dream. Never feel down for whatever position you are in now, never stop striving to be what you visualize. Never also make the mistake of dreaming small. Small dreams are limits to your potentials and an insult to your Existence. Propel your dreams and watch it move!

I wouldn't be on Steemit IF NOT FOR BIG DREAMS.....
I wouldn't participate in this contest BUT FOR BIG DREAMS
I would probably have settled for a smaller dream and not want to get noticed by @curie and @blocktrades, ALL THANKS TO BIG DREAMS
What could have prompted this innovative thoughts by @michaelcj? It could ONLY BE BIG DREAMS
@surpassinggoogle is a role model to many, it couldn't have been possible without attributing to HIS BIG DREAMS

Are you striving daily to reach a higher ring on the Steemit ladder? You can have the ladder! I won't be needing it as my dreams is to fly instead to the top. It is not unachievable. I wouldn't be devastated if I lose this contest but rather be honored to have been given the opportunity to project my dreams. Also, I would love to use this medium to appreciate @ambmicheal for introducing me into the world of STEEMIT and for continual support. He has been a mentor and a motivator. Keep your big dreams alive!
