"夢を小さな箱に入れて、「そう、夢を持っている、もちろん夢を持っているよ」と言う人たちがいます。そして、その箱をしまって、ときどき取り出して中を見て、「うん、まだある」と確認します。"
— Erma Bombeck
Simplified Meaning:
Some people have dreams and goals that they never really act on. Instead of working to make those dreams come true, they treat them like items in a box, just looking at them occasionally. Imagine someone who wants to be a writer but never writes anything. They keep thinking about their dream, saying they want to write a book someday, but they never actually sit down to start. This is like keeping their dream in a box and only looking at it from time to time, instead of taking the steps to achieve it. To make dreams a reality, it's important to take action and work on them regularly, not just think about them. So, if you have a dream, try to do something small every day to move closer to it, rather than keeping it hidden away.
