You are adventurous!

"You are adventurous! You have to be a realistic! Don't go to Russia! It's a bad idea …"- some relative said to me on my last day in Kuwait and was not happy about my decision to study Aerospace Engineering in Russia. . I was evaluating the words in my mind when I was in the airplane leaving to Europe but I see myself that I just cannot quit my dream. Most people I meet in Kuwait tell me that I have to be reasonable and keep space activities as a hobby because there is no such a space program in Kuwait. It was really rough time for me to decide on whether I am doing is uncertain or worth doing it. Stay in Kuwait or go to Russia for my dream? What is real the definition of a "dream"? Dream is not reality and it’s not certain. Is it a bad delusion? Is it worth it to go for the dream? I got puzzled from time to time and question myself "Is it okay to live for my dream?" However I believe the best way to achieve the dream is to take the steps. As a result to what I believe, I am blogging from Russia now. YAHOOO!

Congrats! I just found your blog today, but I'm glad you went with your dream!

It's so easy to just accept life and not struggle for more. It's hard to realize that if you try for your dreams and fail, you CAN still survive. But if you don't even try for your dreams, all you HAVE is surviving. Following your dream is always the right decision.

Hi Maryam! I find your blog very interesting! All I can say that even we don't know each other too well yet, I am very proud of what you are doing. You are doing a pioneer job and truly believe to see you in the news in a space station, smiling and waving Kuwaiti flag. Go for your dream. -Tomi (tenetsi)
