I Have A Dream

In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. I am dedicating my next post to him. This is my version of the famous speech I Have A Dream....

I Have A Dream to live in a world where love is the majority and hate is the minority. I Have A Dream to live in a world where I don't have to worry about my kids when they are at school or in any public place for that matter. A world where you can go to the grocery store and not have to worry about guns, violence or crime. I Have A Dream to live in a world where the only thing you have is true friends and family and you don't have to worry about the ones that are your friends or family only to exploit you. Where you don't have to worry about them being your friends one day and not the next.

I Have A Dream that the future of this country will be of great promise and it will be a place where my children and my children's children will be proud to live. A Dream to live in a world without war, and without all the pain and suffering that comes with it. I Have A Dream to live in a world where children are protected and the system doesn't protect those that bring harm to them. I dream to live in a world that has consistency and doesn't play favorites. Where our politians and leaders are of high standards and authority that we are proud to look up to. Last but not least I Have A Dream to live in a world of change, not just promise of change, and that change is for the better. Not just the better for the rich or the unfortunate but for all people.

Now on a lighter note...I Have A Dream to live in a place with warm weather all year round. A place that everyday is a party and a time to have fun with family and friends. I Have a Dream to live in a world where calories are never counted and exercise is for the fun of it not because you have to. A place of clearance sales on every rack and chocolate on every corner. And once again, last but not least, I Have A Dream to live in a place where children always obey their parents, take naps when told, and are kind to their siblings.

I don't think any of these things are too much to ask for. So in honor of MLK day I challenge everyone to think about their dreams. Think about what it would mean to you to have all your dreams come true.
