Greetings,

Every person has a different dream. Especially when we're kids. We dream about what we want to be based on our interests, family, exposures, media, friends, etc.

Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the Philippines. At a young age I want to become a pro basketball player. Because I enjoyed watching basketball on television. I want to be like Kobe Bryant and recently like Jason Tatum.

Because of that dream I practiced a lot and put up a lot of effort. I want to be a great shooter and love to dunk. But my height is only 5'3".

When I was in my 20's I knew that becoming a pro basketball player was an unreliable dream. Did I be discouraged? I think I don't feel bad at all.

I fell in love with basketball and enjoyed it a lot. I play basketball as an exercise and to get myself fit. Through basketball I had encountered different people and some became friends. I also teach and give advice to young kids playing basketball.

Until now at age 42 that unreliable dream still lives on me. I smiled when it occurred into my mind. And I said thank you self for that dream because I got everything on it. It's life.
