A Dream Projected
A Dream Projected is when someone else’s dream becomes your full-time job, and you’re not even paid for it.
My sister’s dream is to be a singer. She still can’t even sing in tune and I’m stuck listening to her every day.
My uncle’s dream is to be a billionaire. He still can’t even pay his rent.
My friend’s dream is to be a top athlete. He still can’t even run a mile without wheezing.
