What is a Dream, Should It Be Pursued?

It feels heavy, like I am going to fail
The challenge of writing this seems utterly absurd
Who would endure for about 340 days
But Garmin 965 is truly what I desire now

Oh God Is it worthy for me to strive for this?
Such a trivial thing

Do I need to hurt myself
Or perhaps what I need to do Is lower my expectations
But if that happens
Then what is a dream
Then what is the reward for one’s own effort

The end of the year is still far away
I have many other dreams

But I’m starting to feel sick of writing
It’s not about the reward

My writing has no value
ChatGPT has been very helpful
But it doesn’t support my consistency
That app dulls my imagination

My mind is trapped
If everything has been provided
Then what’s the point of fighting for it
I don’t know

One certainty
Year 2025, still 7 months 26 days
Or about 240 days

Garmin 965
Could my hand be destined for you
Or perhaps this is the right time to start being sincere
And let go of the hundreds of days that have passed
I’m tired of this one target.

Stuck in my mind
