Half-Baked Dreams

Life is like a cake, some parts are baked, some parts are still raw. Some dreams are fully baked, some are only half-baked. We all have our own half-baked dreams, which we may not realize or give up easily. However, it is important to recognize that our dreams are not perfect or complete without any flaws, and we need to work hard to make them come true.

In my opinion, dreams should not be abandoned just because they are only half-baked. Instead, we should use our time and energy to improve them, to make them more perfect and complete. We should not give up easily, but rather persistently pursue our goals and dreams, even if they are not fully realized yet. Only then can we truly appreciate the sweetness of success when our dreams become reality.
