Dream, Dream, Dream: Divinity and Destiny!
April 15, 2021
If wishes were horses, beggars would ride, is an old saying, as old as the hills. The closest synonym of the word ‘wishes’ could be ‘dreams’ and so let us discuss about dreams. It is a pessimistic saying suggesting wishes (dreams) can never be realised. But we are often advised to have dreams, big ones in that, so that later in life we may realise it.
Martin Luther King Jr, the Black American Civil Rights Leader, had in his famous speech spoken of his dreams, many dreams for his Black American brothers. True, some of those dreams were realised but many have remained as they were when he spoke of them. Racial discrimination is still haunting America. Remember George Floyd, a Black, died in Police custody in May 2020? The “Black lives matter” slogan? Let it be.
