MLK had a dream. It was one that many Americans shared. As part of that dream, he wanted black kids and white kids to play together. We did better than that. We have a black/white man as our President. Yes, parts of the dream aren't fulfilled yet; but, I have that faith that Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke about. I have faith.
46 years later, Obama has a dream. Believe it or not, it's not much
different from the dream that our founders shared, along with MLK.
Unalienable rights - LIFE, love, and the pursuit of happiness. Is LIFE too
much for Americans to ask for? Unfortunately, American LIFE is all too often lost based on the judgements of insurance companies and the pursuit of instantaneous happiness.
Just as MLK stated, "We must not walk alone." Our President needs us. He needs ALL Americans to put away our selfish pride and become selfless. I have faith in US.
An AmeriCAN donated their blood when the 29 year old needed those
transfusions. An AmeriCAN wrote that prescription for additional health care hours for Mom when the insurance companies tried to cut them. An AmeriCAN gave that single disabled working AmeriCAN Mom money for her prescription because the ten $30 copays, $200 month premium and $100 emergency room visits consumed her paycheck and tax return. An AmeriCAN helped the single Mother get her children food when she lost her job because of the illness; and, the Short Term Disability
company's denied her claim... despite numerous doctor's statements
that she needed to focus on her health.
I have faith in our President. I have faith AmeriCANs. I have faith in
LIFE. I have faith in US. I believe it WILL happen. I share the dream that we don't continue in the path
of being the ProcrastiNATION Nation. I can only hope that we start down the path of being the Proactive Nation, 4LIFE.
Let's cash that USA Check 4LIFE, 2DAY. As MLK said, "It would be fatal to overlook the urgency of the moment..." literally....
p.s. Praying that this dream blog doesn't end up in my book series, "Embracing Crazy - Delusional Dreams". haha.
