I have A Dream, Too

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

Martin Luther King Jr.

I Have a Dream, Too, or rather many dreams.

I have a dream that one day we will all be equal. There will be one day where everyone has the same rights. There will be one day where a woman has the chance to be a preacher. There will be one day on which every child has the same educational opportunities. No child will have to sweat in a crowded factory only to get as much money as it needs to survive. We will all drink from the same source of freedom, justice, and righteousness. This drink will give us power, it will create a big community.

I hope that one day women won’t be underestimated or considered objects, that they will be able to walk alone at night without fearing to be assaulted. No one, no woman or man, in our world should experience domestic violence. We will live in a world where everyone can live their life without being assaulted or beaten by their partner. The world of ablution and raping will lay way behind us on a lonley, non-existant island, and the waves surrounding it will be to high to get there.

I dream that one day racism will be eliminated, that Asian people won’t be bound to the idea of poor or knockoff, that black people won’t be killed in the middle of the streets because the police thought that they were a danger to society. I would like to see a day when nobody anywhere is harmed emotionally or physically by racism, violence, or drugs. I want to see a day when nobody comes running to me because somebody or something has hurt them and ruined their day. I will see that day. I will see that day where we all have planted a tree of peace, and its elegant branches will cover our houses, mine and yours.

I have so many dreams.

I believe that one day people won’t be abandoned by their own families and friends because of their sexuality or way of thinking.

I hope that one day men openly expressing their feelings won’t be considered weak.

I dream that one day everyone will be able to practice their own religion without being called terrorists or being obligated to go against their own beliefs.

I believe that every child in the world will be able to live their lives peacefully, not being victims of abuse by their own parents or other family members.

I hope that one day pollution will only be a memory from a distant past, that every animal will be safe and sound. We will not hold chickens in a cage smaller than the fridge we store its body in after killing it. We will give animals the life they deserve without killing and eating them.

I have a dream that one day all of my wishes will come true and I will be able to live my best life without regretting anything.

My dreams will come true.

    Martin Luther King Jr’s speech always makes me very emotional, and I loved writing my own version of it. I think my ideas and hopes for the world’s future are expressed very well. It might have been better if I had connected some ideas and paragraphs with each other.
