Editor, Commonwealth:
I firmly believe that America can and will be better if we all work together. I also believe that we all have a place on earth and that we are here for a reason.
I pray every day that we dedicate ourselves to be the best that we can be as well as helping to give hope to all people and nations. Let’s work together more and make our world and our home better by sharing hope, faith and love more then ever.
I’m asking all people to believe in our ability to bring change within ourselves and each other so that our children can have a better future. We must stand up as people, as a community and a country to not be against each other but for one other.
My biggest dream is to see all people have the same opportunity as the next man or woman beside them. I dream that our communities will be more safe and that our children can go and play, have fun and enjoy the world as they grow. I dream that there will be better jobs and programs for people who have a hard time learning. I dream that our world will be cleaner and that schools will have a better way to teach our children. And I dream that both sides of the political world will come up with a way to have peace with each other.
I know that this is a lot to ask, but one day I will have a family of my own, and this is what I want for my family.
I have hope for America for I see this country with a bright future, even with everything that is going on in the world today. Hope means to have faith in something, even if it may seem impossible. So let’s make what seems impossible possible.
