Hi,

Do you have a dream which you think is almost impossible and there's little hope of living it?

I have one.

I want to see Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) at least once in my lifetime. This looks almost impossible to me because, for this I have to go to Canada, Russia or some Scandinavian country and stay there till I see them. And as far as I know, there's no way to tell precisely when they will appear in the sky and this makes things even more complicated and the dream almost impossible. :cry:

By the way, did anyone happen to see them?

Hi Raju,

Why do you think it is impossible for you to travel to Canada, Russia or Scandinavia?

Hi Torsten,

It's not impossible for me to go to these countries, but the problem is the occurence of these lights is quite random and it's hard to predict it. I don't think I can afford to stay in these places for an indefinite period of time.

I haven't completely ruled out the possibility though. I said the dream is almost impossible but not totally impossible. I will try real hard to live it. :)
