&quot;The advice to &#039;hold on to your dreams&#039; is all well and good, but there comes a point when holding on to your dreams becomes unhelpful and even unhealthy. life can pass you by while you are clinging on to a wish that can never be - or ought never to be fulfilled. Your deepest yearning is for something impossible Desperately sad though it is that you have been deprived of your dreams, know that siting and gazing on a vision of what you can never have, will only damage you and your heart.&quot;
