Am I too old to have those childhood "rockstar" dreams?

Jeez, I am turning 35 in July. I think I am starting to panic a bit, to be honest. I just feel that I am not “at home” yet. There are so many things I wish I could do and I should have done. Sure, I love my job as a teacher, but I don’t think this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I still have that silly dream of becoming famous, perhaps in music or in acting or in media. I also have dreams about just letting go, rob a bank and put on my backpack and just leave and never come back. Escape to that deserted island far away, open a pub on the beach, work my way around the world…

Some are “rockstar dreams”, some are dreams about being independent, free and leading a simple life.

What are these dreams good for, anyway? When am I too old to have them? Should I let them be dreams or should I start working towards them? Well, the robbing a bank dream might not be a good start (unless I think it’s worth getting my hands on a couple of billions, live my dreams for five years, come back home and spend two years in prison. Five years of happiness, is it worth two years in prison? Hmmm….).

Stop dreaming or continue dreamin?
