Before starting to go through some phrases, let me ask you a simple question.
Do you have a dream?
I would like to answer like this.
*夢 means “dream”
This phrase was repeated by Martin Luther King, Jr. in his speech. Even though the situations between mine and his are totally different, it has always encouraged me.
When I was young, my dream was to have a normal life. But…
What does having a “normal life” mean?
It is that you don’t have to live in a 9 square meter room with 2 brothers, you celebrate your birthday with a cake and gifts, and you don’t have to work from 4pm till midnight 5 days a week in order to pay for school fees.
Many times I thought I should not have hope or a dream, however, those great people’s words / quotes have helped me to keep trying to reach for better life (see “who am I?“).
Now, let’s see these encouraging words from history on the next page.
