A Dream Deferred

article image placeholderUploaded by @chocolatechat99
When we were younger we would imagine how our lives would be like when we grew up, right? Would we have a bath, car drop top down, wind blowing in our hair? Will we have a beautiful house filled with 2.5 children? Or will we work that corporate job? Maybe even take over our family business? Would you be an entrepreneur? Maybe not. Rare one kids

Hi. Thank you so much for sharing this message and for reading that part of the Lynx and Hughes poem. I forgot about that poem, and I'm going to have to go back and read the whole thing. And I appreciated what you said at the end about not letting other thoughts or opinions stop you from your dream. I think that's a really big one. And that just to keep going. So thank you for sharing this again

But I'm learning that because of technology, you know, inspired by, like, TikTok and different other streaming platforms, that it is possible, no matter what age you are, no matter what shape you are, no matter what race you are, everyone has their own unique values that they can add to the world. You don't have to be like everyone else. And it's kind of hard to accept about ourselves. You want to be like everybody else because you want to be accepted
