The simplicity of my day to day. |
This is where I write my thoughts, feelings and my daily trials, tribulations and happy things

On this day in 1963, some 200,000 people marched on Washington, D.C., an event that became a high point of the civil rights movement, especially remembered for the famous “I Have a Dream” speech of Martin Luther King, Jr. If you were to write your own speech beginning with--- I have a dream.... what would you write. I have a dream that one day there’ll be no wars, that people can learn to be tolerant of each other. That bullying in schools and the workplace is outlawed and the perpetrators are brought to justice. I have a dream that dementia and Alzheimers doesn’t exist, that cancer is just a disease of long ago. I have a dream that starvation isn’t allowed to happen, that there is enough food for all. I have a dream that weapons are not needed, whether they be weapons of mass destruction or simply the personal ownership of guns. I have a dream no child grows up in fear, listening to the sounds of loud voices and violence in their home. I have a dream that one day we treat all sentient beings kindly and acknowledge they feel pain as much as humans. |
