Having a dream is important. Having a dream is crucial, is critical as a matter of fact, its the life blood for a lot of people.
If you don't have a dream, if you're just floating along in life, then it's pretty hard to function because you don't have a destination, you don't have something that you're pushing after and when people challenge you, when people make assumptions about you, if you don't have something that pushes you past the hurt, pushes you past the pain, pushes you past the insults then it can be challenging to live an enjoyable and fulfilling life.
