There is no limit to the endless possibilities.
How people act, think, judge, how we treat each other, and what we do.
The one thing that keeps me going everyday is the fact that I know there is something
better and that maybe with my and many others help, I, we can change the world. One continent,
one country, one state, one city, or one village at a time. One house, one family, one mother or father,
or ever one brother or sister. One individual person who is full of potential and love at a time.
The smallest notion that there is something so much bigger and so much more powerful is there, all around
us. Almost like a higher state of being or a deeper meaning that fits into a grand schema that is full
of love and peace. A higher state of awareness where there is interconnectedness with every living thing
and non-living thing. Where everybody and everything exits in one moment and in complete harmony.
John Lennon said it in his songs and in his words. He wrote of what things could be like, imaginary worlds
of curiosity, wonder, and marvel. He wrote of love and peace, war and death, and he wrote about the world.
Martin Luther King spoke of dreams. He spoke of how things could be. He had a vision for what things
should and could be like and he spoke it. He took it and made it a reality.
In the song "Imagine" by John Lenin there was a line that said,
"some say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one". The truth is that everybody has a dream,
an idea, and a concept of what things could be like and how things can be better.
A higher purpose and a higher authority are what we all share. Jerry Garcia had a dream of peace and love.
Freedom of thought and feeling. He felt his way through every song he played and every concert he preformed.
He showed the world that love is a great thing and that people need to stop and appreciate the smaller things.
All of these great people had visions, dreams, and a notion of something so much greater and a world that is so
much better. I have a challenge for each person who reads this paper. For one moment of your busy life,
one hour of your packed schedule, one day of your non-stop week think about what things could be like.
Dream of how things could be and how people should be. Think about it and place that thought deep within
your soul and mind. Now for one day stop living the life of tomorrow and live the life of today because
if you don't you might miss something. Take the dreams and hopes of something better and plant them like a
seed in your mind and in the mind of others and with that you will create hope in the minds of others.
They might even plant their seed in you and make one day just a little bit better.
Pass this on to somebody else whom you wish to give the gift of a seed that will grow into a beautiful flower!
