(317 words) Since childhood, parents have encouraged us to dream, but for adults who abuse dreams, they are negative. Why? I think the reason is that mature people who fantasize a lot do not live in reality, but in castles in the air, so they are infantile and incapable of real affairs. For confirmation, we turn to examples from books.
Recall the novel “An Ordinary History” by I. Goncharov. A nephew came to Pyotr Aduyev, who seemed to the hero a frivolous young man. Instead of an action plan and readiness to study, he brought to the capital only notebooks with mediocre verses and a romantic mood. The young man was too immersed in dreams of recognition, love, a beautiful life, but he stubbornly did not want to notice reality and its requirements. Uncle tried to return Alexander to the earth, to show him that with such literature he would not earn a ruble, and it was too early to think about his family in his position. However, the young man did not recognize the obvious need to work on himself, he dreamed and wished for everything, and he did not have any strength left to do the work. Peter was forced to take care of the young man, which was not part of his plans. Therefore, a man can be understood: he assessed reverie negatively, because it deprives a person of the opportunity to think objectively.
Recall the poem "Dead Souls" by N. Gogol. Manilov was a passionate dreamer. He spoke enthusiastically to all guests about plans to build a large stone bridge, where he would place trading places for merchants. So he intended to revive the economy of a small homeland. However, Chichikov saw behind the words the real state of affairs: the master was robbed by all and sundry, he did not understand anything in the household. There was no question of any bridge, respectively. Also, a person who could spend hours ranting about education and culture has not read for more than a year, after all, the book on his desk was covered with dust and always lay in the same position. That is why the hero made negative conclusions about Manilov: his reverie greatly interfered with his work.
Thus, adults who are dreamy tend to become infantile and helpless inventors, which is why society negatively assesses their flight from reality.
