**most** gratifying and fulfilling.

sorry there is an annoying lag on my computer haha.

And we should “cups and ice” our opportunities, **BY**making the most of any opportunity to achieve our dreams

and to clarify the end point, when we are born our first dream we ever had at birth was to be held and loved, and eventually the ultimate dream we commit to, love and family, is the one that will be the gratifying and fulfilling, so there is really no sacrifice between work and family. It's one big, ultimate dream.

And he says that we should keep in mind the ultimate dream of exploring/experiencing the world and having love in our lives, because when we grow up there really is no sacrifice between work and family, it’s just that big, ultimate dream. Hope that helps!!

. And then he tells us that us dreamers will not fail, because we will always have more than one dream as we pursue our dreams. And ultimately, he says, we should remember that our first dream when we were born was to be held, and to have love.

So he says that we should take these ideas and make them happen by committing to them, almost like a marriage, where we stick with them through thick and thin. And we should “cups and ice” our opportunities, but making the most of any opportunity to achieve our dreams, just like Phoebe did in Friends when she was given the job of being in charge of cups and ice at a party and she made the whole party cups and ice because she did so well with such a small thing.

. He talks about termites, about how they are born and they know what they need to do. And he relates it to us dreamers and says that we should trust and follow our inner instincts. And he says that as we pursue them we should think of ourselves like “The Very Hungry Caterpillar,” the caterpillar from the children’s story who “worms” his way through his goals.

I’m sorry I can’t take the time to write it all out for you, but he’s basically talking about how to achieve our dreams. He is a dreamer and he is talking to the dreamers of the world. He says that unfortunately most dreamers never see their ideas through, because the world gives us so many reasons not to (failures, obstacles, adverse circumstances, etc.) So what he says is that the first thing we need to do is get in touch with our inner instincts.

This seems like a lot of bragging about himself.
