Imagine walking under the sun and seeing your shadow? Did you run after it to catch it? Definitely, it is an impossible chase that normally ends up fruitless and leaving you frustrated.
Chasing shadows in real life can be likened to something useless, makes no sense, unachievable and a total waste of one’s time and energy.
It may be surprising but there are people who spend time dreaming of the impossible things they wish to achieve. Inability to make any headway with this so called dream leaves them frustrated and not wanting to do anything else with their lives.
It can be destructive to chase shadows. It is rather better to focus on real things that are doable.
