about freedom and peace and quiet. i like dreaming that wars have ended and people have learned to get along with each other or simply choose some other set of people. there are more than six billion of us. more than enough here to find a likely match. i like dreaming that corporation realize that equality goes a long way towards a positive work ethic. i dream that people no longer have to stand on the corner with a cardboard sign begging other people for food or clothing or dry warm place to sleep. i dream that there is no more starvation in the world. that we have eliminated famine and disease. can you imagine this place? you simply have to try. if we can begin to imagine a world without war, we will find a way to stop killing each other. if we can imagine a world where everyone has enough to eat, we can begin to create the world. if we can begin to imagine that all people have merit, simply by virtue of birth, we can eliminate hatreds and so many of the -isms. this child is the child we will be changing the world for. she deserves all that we have learned and valued. she may be the next Ghandi or maybe the next brilliant scientist or the person who achieves the next most important thing in medicine or computers or ...she is in my Sunday School class. Joy to the World!
