Hello, everybody:

I want to exchange an opinion with you from different countries in the global world.

"Do you think bread and butter is more important than dreams?"

How do you balance the dilemma between the two issues?

Thanks for your precious opinions and nice to meet you!!

Yes, Ithink that bread and butter is more important than dreams. Because dream is only a raw material which you have about your future life, which won't be true anyway and wich needs a lot of variations, effort and bread and butter to come true.

Butter and Bread are the footstone of a biulding, and the dream is a beautiful flag on the biulding.

It's easy to see which one is more important.

There is an idiom : " The way to a man's heart is through his stomach"....so bread and butter is more important than dream. As Redrose said Butter and Bread are the footstone of a biulding, and the dream is a beautiful flag on the building. ...it's easy to see which one is more important Exclamation

I heard another saying: the way to a man's heart is between his legs.
