Follow Your Dreams

Walking along the dark hall full of closed doors, my mind tells me they won’t open but my heart says they will. I feel a sense of light in my soul guiding me to the right door. Since I was a child I had this longing to dance, I had the talent but now I want to show it to the world. My parents and teachers, my friends and foes all told me to let it go. There was only one boy I remember that told me “Follow your dreams”. Soon the hall lights up and all the doors began to open but one door in particular drew me to it and I knew I was right not to give up. I followed my heart to destiny’s door. I clutch my bag and begin to sweat as I draw nearer to the door. My mind starts to question “What if I don’t get it? What if it all goes to waste?” I begin to feel nervous and start to doubt myself as I walk through the door. A tall man with a slim figure, green eyes, fair skin and a bright smile ushers me to my seat. I sit across from him with only a round red wood table in between. Hours pass as he asks questions and I answer some of them having nothing to do with my job. Soon I relaxed then I suddenly realized I knew this man. The interview was over and it was time to leave. I had gotten the job but I couldn’t get myself up. This was the boy who told me “Follow your dreams”.
