Of fairies and mirages ...

Once upon a time, in a land not so far away, there were two young mice. They lived in a beautiful valley at the foothills of this mountain range called Ambition.

The older mouse -Rudolph, wanted it all - he wanted to burrough deep into the ground at the foothills and find his way right up to the summit. The younger one - Randolph, was a little more circumspect. He thought life was all about minimizing risks and thought "What if I get lost?" When he voiced this concern to Rudolph, he was told "You think that by living here and being what you are, you aren't taking a risk?" Randolph said: "No, I'm not. I know this life. I understand it.".

Rudolph smiled and asked him "What if I told you that you're taking the biggest risk of all; that you're simply following the herd? You don't even know where you want to go in life. I, at least, know that. Sure, the road's difficult, but if I don't go down that road, I'll never know. That to me is much worse than the possibility of getting lost ..."

Rudolph left and Randolph stood there, watching him walk away ...

Better late than never!!

There was once a very wise man who said that the most glaring mistakes are those that are never made. Following this sagacious bit of advice, I choose not to make the glaring mistake of never having blogged. So this is the beginning ....

Ah yes!! a short explanation as to the title of the blog [Dreamers Inc.]. I just figured - since we all spend so much time being the real 'us' [making the gargantuan assumption of course that there is only one real 'u' or one real 'me'], this Blog might as well be devoted to what a few of us call the fourth dimension ... where there are no judgements, no preconceptions but just thoughts ... sort of like a bouncing board ... only the board isn't static and every time the thought bounces back, its changed in some way or the other ...

More later...

Cheers!!
