Hmm...not everyone can afford it, but yes it's not impossible. And they won't be absolutely like your lost legs. But what I'm saying is that you will never have THAT legs again. The point is: people aren't like "prosthetic legs", they can't be easily replaced, and even so, it happens everytime. People judge others constantly, just because we're not what they expect... I could have a better life if I had certain things, but I don't have. What in the world would replace my pain? And no, I'm not talking about liking someone who doesn't like me, this is normal and acceptable. I'm talking about people who misjudge and underestimate you, and the destiny doesn't give you a chance to react.

To take small steps towards your dreams seems more productive to me.
Sometimes people lose site of reality over such lofty goals.

Don't get me wrong.....Dream away. And I would wish the best for anyone with lofty goals and a high standard for themselves!!!!!!!

You're right, and i was expecting this kind of reply. But reality has a different meaning to different people, and as I said before I could be better now... and I'm not. And I'm not ambitious, I don't want to be "better" than others. Unfortunately, there ARE lost people who don't have any hope to live. It's not like I'm one of them, but I'm not that perfect. I want more money, to give it away and prove to people that they don't need it, I want more beauty, to show everyone that they can have it too, I want to have a full life, to prove people can have one too. But I always find out that I'm weak. My body is fragile. I realize I'm not invincible... and then I fall.

In my opinion, the less you see life as a harsh, or "forsaken" reality, the better. You can't build dreams on decayed earth.

True. I always wonder why we always let doubt dominate us. But it seems so hard when no one believes in you... how can you prove false the beliefs of an entire civilization? While everyone says "no" you have to break an "unbreakable" rule of this reality. I don't like the word impossible...

It's the same for "miracles", "telekinesis", "obes" (they aren't accepted by many people), "precognition", they're always marked as "impossible stuff". This drives me crazy, because I'm the only one who can believe in myself.
