Dreams

A few days ago, I watched Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring Summer 2012, and I was captivated. I have never seen costumes so beautifully design, with such an array of details that dictates the skill and made from such wonderful fabric.

Sheer, see-through material that was layered with a spectrum from white, grey to black. The fold and the curve are perfectly where they are supposed to be. Every piece of the collection charmed me, and they are very uniform in idea and concept.

Watching a walking enormous work of art like that is striking and sad at the same time. To think that I will never be able to reach to that level of skill, never be able to create something of such beauty is a very daunting thought. People like to say never give up your dream. But there are circumstances in which your mere will of not giving up the dream is not enough. Say, I want to create such a beautiful dress. It takes talent, experience, effort, skill and an enormous amount of money. No matter how much I tried to do every day, there is little that I can do that could allow me to realize my dream.

"Dreams need to be big, so that even if it is shattered, you still have big pieces left."
