LIVE BY CHOICE NOT BY CHANCE!!!!

There is a very famous line from the epitaph by James Albery:……………………………!!!!!!!!!

……. .. “He slept beneath the moon,

he basked beneath the sun;

he lived a life of going to do

and died with nothing done”……………………………………

These lines beautifully capture the essence of a life filled with aspirations and intentions, yet ultimately unfulfilled. Albery’s words remind us to seize the day and turn our dreams into actions. 

……………..Once upon a time, in a village ………….lived a man named Mr X . He was known throughout the village for his dreams and aspirations. He was a dreamer, always talking about the things he would do, the places he would go, and the adventures he would embark on.

His days were spent beneath the warmth of the sun, as he toiled away in the fields, tending to the crops that sustained his village. But as soon as the moon rose high in the sky, his mind would wander to distant lands and grand adventures. He would lay beneath the twinkling stars, imagining himself sailing across vast oceans, scaling towering mountains, and exploring mysterious forests. Years passed, and his dreams only grew stronger. He spoke passionately about his plans to travel the world, to seek out new experiences and chase his wildest ambitions. But as time went on, the villagers began to notice something peculiar about him. Despite his grand dreams and endless talk of adventure, he never seemed to take any real steps towards making them a reality.

Instead, he remained in the same village, day after day, year after year, stuck in a cycle of routine and familiarity. He would spend his days working in the fields and his nights lost in his dreams, always believing that tomorrow would be the day he finally set out on his great journey. But tomorrow never came for him. And one fateful day, as the sun dipped below the horizon and the moon rose again, Mr. X closed his eyes for the last time. He had lived a life of going to do, but in the end, he died with nothing done.

As the village mourned the loss of their dreamer, they couldn’t help but reflect on the lessons ……….story had taught them. They realized that life was not just about dreaming, but about taking action and seizing the opportunities that lay before them. And so, inspired by Mr X, memory, the villagers vowed to live each day to the fullest, never forgetting that the greatest adventures were the ones they pursued with open hearts and willing feet.

!!!!!!! So………… Dreams are the seeds of possibility, but it is the soil of action which brings them to fruition. So, dare to dream, but never forget that true fulfilment comes from taking that first step into the unknown, turning dreams into lived realities.”!!!!!!!!!!!!!
