(409 words) Many people are faced with the fact that their dream is being destroyed, because in reality it is impossible to realize what they have in mind. Especially often this happens with childhood dreams, because the child has not studied the world around him in detail, and his dreams are too divorced from reality. Also at risk are those people who do not live independently and infantily, and therefore also can not correlate their fantasies with the real state of things. Consider such examples to verify the correctness of these judgments.
In A.S. Pushkin's novel Eugene Onegin, the heroine dreams of ideal love described in many novels. Tatyana lives in isolation, does not know the world and people, therefore her naivety has no limits, and she believes that the first visiting nobleman who came across is the embodiment of her ideal. The girl writes a message to him, thinking that this is enough to start their fabulous joint story. But reality teaches the dreamer a harsh lesson: Eugene returns a note and teaches the young heroine how to behave in society. She is ashamed and painful to hear this, her illusions are broken about the realities of real life, where people are not necessarily created by each other, where love may not be mutual. Why did it happen? The poor thing is still young, lives with her parents, she has nowhere to find out what is happening outside of her estate and her favorite books. Tatyana is still a child, inexperienced and naive. This means that dreams are broken by reality when a person is not yet ripe for an objective perception of reality.
Another example was described by N. M. Karamzin in the novel “Poor Liza”. A young romantic girl dreamed of a big and pure love. In all people she saw only the good, because she did not have experience with them. A peasant woman lived with her mother in a distance from the city and other houses. Therefore, she easily trusted Erast, who became her ideal. The young nobleman became interested in her, spoke enthusiastic speeches, and, it seemed, there would be no end to the happiness of the lovers. Lisa gave herself to the gentleman, because she was sure that he would marry her. However, the hero was fed up with this proximity and thought about his future. He knew the world in which he lived. The basis of wealth in society was money, not amorous adventures. The young man abandoned the peasant woman and profitably married another woman - wealthy and noble. The heroine committed suicide, because her dreams were destroyed. She, like Tatyana Larina, was still a naive child who did not know what reality was.
Thus, reality destroys the dream when a person cannot objectively evaluate the world around him and its laws, so he fantasizes about what, in principle, cannot be. Such dreams inevitably break into sharp cliffs of reality, because over time, the person is faced with reality and realizes that the imagination created only an illusion.
