I am a teenage girl currently doing well with my ‘A’ level studies. My dream is to become one of the most prominent people in my society and help underprivileged children. I would love to build an orphanage here. Sometimes my friends tell me I am dreaming when I tell them about it. It makes me feel like it is something that cannot be achieved. Please tell me if I am being overambitious? – Ruramai
Dear Ruramai
Oh dear everything starts as a dream and only dies a dream when the dreamer stops dreaming. Your friends are right to say you are dreaming – but you should know that that is the beginning of everything big. It has to start somewhere. The big projects and big companies you see around were never built in a day, they all began as somebody’s dream. So you should never be discouraged. It is great to have your dream at such an early age, you know what you want in life and you will live walking in the road to achieve it. You are going to be a star. – Aunty Lisa
