The changes and influence on Englisch
Many people complain that English spoken in Britain changes. In the following the influences and changes shall be discussed: First of all TV has a lot of influence on people. So as the English spoken on TV has changed the language of the people watching TV has changed too. This might be because especially young kids try to adopt their idols' way of talking. A second aspect is that even dictionaries now include the latest slang words. Thirdly Estuary English is slowly replacing RP. Besides people nowadays care less about the way other people speak. Language is fluid, so changes come and go.
Dreams...
Once the professor of physics and scientist Robert H. Goddard said "It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow". He meant if you have a dream and work hard enough for it, you can turn it into reality. You also shouldn't loose your dream in front of your eyes instead keep on working on it that maybe someday you can live your dream.
