Dreams



Have you ever dreamt of a place of perfection
A place where all people are free to love
Where all people are free of guilt

I have dreamed of a place where all people lived in peace
Those of all races cooperated
Those of all religions walked through the same gardens
Those of all sexualities gathered in harmony
I dreamt of a land where anything was possible through cooperation

Although this place is only a dream we could very well make it a reality But for this dream to come true one person must first stand and say people are wrong
Then they must still stand alone if necessary to fight tyranny
You may think one person is not capable of changing the world.
A wise man once said
Even the tiniest grain of sand can tilt the scale just as a a single being can make a change the world
