The person in the middle is the great Hugh Hefner, and he said:

Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream

Hugh Hefner, grew up in a rather conservative family, and his mother wanted him to become a missionary. He did become a "missionary" in his own right, becoming the best "missionary" by promoting naughty pictures in magazines for both men and women.

By chasing his dreams, he gave free women a platform to freely express their body, and also became a pioneer in creating an industry that satisfied people's sexual need before porn was created. He's a great man.

Truly, life is too short to be living somebody else's dream. Whatever your parents, family, teachers, friends, or your god says, just listen to your heart. Search what you want to do from within, and chase your dreams. Believe in your dream, and yourself, and chase your own path, and do not give up however hard the journey might be. You will be a successful person in your own right and standards, and that's all that matters.

Hugh Hefner was a living testimony in proving what he said. He lived a life full of his own dreams, and he achieved many of his dreams. Nothing turns me on more than a man who was burning with passion. May you rest in peace, Hugh Hefner.

So what are your dreams? Did you get one step closer to your dream today? It's okay, just start now.
