My psychology professor was talking before class one day and jokingly he said, "How does one throw in the towel? I mean, did anyone ever ask the towel how he feels about that?".
This has stuck with me for a few years. Ironically it was meant as a joke, but is there some truth to that statement? Can a person actually throw in the towel? Well, yes - but should we? We all have the freedom of choice in our lives, but when it comes to goals and dreams can we actually just give up?
We can choose to let dreams go, but I believe they have a way of sticking with us. Maybe we let dreams go because we are afraid of the outcome and not reaching what we desire. But what if you give up on your dream and spend the rest of your life trying to dream up something to replace it? And what if that new dream just isn't quite as good?
Well, for me, that's too many what ifs. Dream big or go home.
