Dreams are what powers our hopes and aspirations and ambitions. Without a dream car, dream house, dream career, dream woman to reach for, we might not know the meaning of motivation, drive and we may fail to see the value of hard work and perseverance.
Too easily satisfied, and the human ambition is quenched, and with it, innovation and progress. Too easily placated, and we may never reach for the stars and land on the moon - and all the technology that was a by product of that dream - from microwave ovens to Velcro, may never have been invented.
Your mileage may vary.

QUOTE(StephMujan @ Jun 4 2020, 09:50 AM) Can have better lasting dreams than dream car and dream house. Yes, I'm sure that's valid according to your opinion, but then again, you cannot be the sole arbiter of truth and veracity - and every person is entitled to his or her view as to what constitutes a "better lasting" dream. |

QUOTE(StephMujan @ Jun 4 2020, 04:33 PM) Is Hitler's dream good and should be copied? Since all subjective. Not saying dream car dream house trend chasing is same as Hitler but its still shallow, vanity, ignorant consumerism that do more harm than good, unless you can afford it, but its still perpetuating a bad culture. Why not dream of electric car? Help fight climate change? Better have dream to change the world, invent technology, fix politic, become doctor, etc. chasing dream car dream house when you already have car and house is not really contributing to progress in my opinion. Its just shallow, vanity, ignorant consumerism. If chasing dream to invent spaceship or new energy technology, then yes very noble. I’m not sure how you made the tenuously tangential tie from a dream car or a dream house to Hitler, but yeah, whatever floats your boat okay? |
