A thousand storks



What is your dream?
This question is frequently asked when we were kids. Be a doctor, an engineer, or maybe an artist were shouted confidently from our lips.

I might not answer it confidently if someone ask me what is my dream now or what I want to do 10 years later. I know that I want to learn and observe more, adapting in different places and cultures. But after that, I still don't know what will I do or what can I do to make living. I always questioning myself; would the knowledge from college or graduate school strong enough to be my investment? Do I have enough time to gain experience after graduating? Is this my real dream or at least a realistic one?The most important thing is, could I make it?

There's a believe in eastern countries that your dream will come true if you make a thousand paper storks. They believe your hard work and will power while making a thousand storks will be seen by God, who will grant your dream.

I believe that though my path is still dark and full of mystery, or whether it's a realistic one or not, I could reach it somehow by keep making my storks :)
