Dream that changes - Dedicated to Anisha & Astha


One of my favorite song as a kid was Que sera, sera which I used to sing at any given opportunity. I loved this song since it stressed that the future is not something that anyone is aware of and what must happen will happen.

As a kid I dreamed of a life that seemed perfect. As I grew up; my dreams also changed. But one thing common in in all my dreams were; I was happy and content with life. A happiness that was peaceful and surreal but was never felt in real life.

In every dream my profession changed starting from being a doctor to a chef. In every dream the people changed, and my expectations changed too. In reality; I was heartbroken that things weren’t how I had dreamt of, but those dreams had given me hope in my tough time. Dreams make you realize what you need to hold on to.

A stage came where I had given up and stopped dreaming. At that point I remembered this song and it made me question myself on why I had stopped dreaming and singing this song. The song made me go back memory lane and helped me dream again.

Below is the lyric of the song, which holds so true for each of us:

When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother what will I be,
Will I be pretty will I be rich, Here's what she said to me

Que sera sera; Whatever will be will be; The future's not ours to see; Que sera sera

When I grew up and fell in love, I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows day after day, Here's what my sweetheart said to me
Que sera sera; Whatever will be will be; The future's not ours to see; Que sera sera

Now I have children of my own, They ask their mother what will I be
Will I be handsome will I be rich, Here’s what I had to say
Que sera sera; Whatever will be will be; The future's not ours to see; Que sera sera
