Getting back my dream.

Ever since i was in 3rd grade, all i wanted to be was a chef.
I wasnt interested in dreaming, like the other kids, i didnt want to be,
a ballorina, a doctor, or magican.

I already had my dream planned out.

I never let go of my dream, till i was 14.
My mom and dad, kept telling me " you'll never last".
" Your gonna fail, and crash".
Over the years, i guess it got real tiring, and i couldnt take
hereing those words anymore.

I changed my carrer for the 1st time in 7 years,
and i still didnt make them happy.

I still heard the same words, as before,
and i learned to ignore.

Then recently, a old uncle called, and asked-
" Do you still want to be a chef"?

I shockingly said " i changed my carrer, and his reaction
was supriseing.

"WHAT?!?!?! AS long as i can remember you wanted to be one".
What happened, did you loose the pashion?

I never lost the pasion, i just got tired of hearing" i cant", " I wont",
"you'll fail"," be this, be that".

They didnt want me to be, what i wanted.
But i relised, i dont want to be, what i changed my carrer to be,
i want to be my dream, i want to be a chef.

I never fully gave up, on my dream,
cause my dream, is my soul.
Is my life, is my love.

Its well worth the fight, and the long nights,
the struggle at times, cause ill do what i love, for the rest of my life.

Im going to make my dream, my reality.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Thank you uncle ron, for makeing me see, that i cant excape, my fate.
Or give up, cause somebody says, i cant.
All i have to do, is prove to myself, that i can, and that is all that matters.
