I Have a Dream

I have a dream......that the world can be a better place. Contrive as it may sound, it is not impossible. Everything begins with "Self". Looking at the world today, though many of us live in material comforts, we are constantly unhappy. Unhappy about our jobs, unhappy about friendships, unhappy about love life, unhappy about life direction in general. There is always a part of us that tells us "i deserve better", "why is he drawing a better pay than me?", "why is his boy/girlfriend so damn goodlooking" (you get the idea). How much, then, is good enough.

 

We all have dreams. My dream, though not yet realised, is to take my place in the universe, touching peoples' lives. Noble? Maybe. Ridiculous? Perhaps. Achievable? Definitely. Even then, i am still human afterall, i too dream to be successful in every aspects of my life. Only when i am comfortably provided for, will i be able to share my abundances with people around me.

 

I have a dream......that there is lesser contempt and sorrow in the world. Reading the news today, a plane crashed in Madrid. Many people perished. Look at how fragile life is. Look at how, in a split second, your life, or someone dear to you, can be disconnected from everyone, and you may not have the chance to say goodbye. To all the victims of the crash, my heartfelt prayers for your souls. Halfway across the World, at the Beijing Olympics, a Swedish wrestler was stripped of his medal, after dropping the medal in protest of a disputed loss in the semi-finals. I feel he's just being disrespectful to not only the Games, but also his opponent and peers. Do we allow our actions and behaviours to breed contempt?

 

I have a dream.....to be able to grow from strength to strength, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. What are we here for? I believe our ultimate goal for the human race is to achieve "heaven on earth" (taken from the book, Celestine Prophecy). To achieve that, we have to come back to self, to strip away all the "negative" thoughts, influences and intentions from our mind and body, allowing positive energy from the universe to flow through us, to heal, to grow and to expand. Do not feel that you are alone, because you are not alone. When more and more individuals embrace the universe, we will be able to help each other along our paths, towards a common intention. Enlightenment.

 

Therefore, i have a dream.....that the world will be a better place, where every human being, the earth, and the universe are one in motion. It will happen, and i believe it will happen in my time here. The world is ready for a change, are you?
