My Foolish Dream
In the distance of time hear the sound
Of those who believe they have found
The light in the dark through the beat of a heart
And the vision of freedom to come
We live in a time of despair
Where the cries of the people lie bare
Generations have passed, heard the slogans enmasse
So when will we be free at last?
While the strain of new voices spread far
Drowning light from a delicate star
But I hold in my heart a dream that I guard
It’s secrets sung by the caged dove
There’s a beautiful sound that I hear
It’s the sound of true freedom for we
And it whispers to me,
“Take my hand and you’ll see
That the dream lives for all who believe”
Let your tears wash away all the fears
Mother nature proved over the years
That for those who turn their back will never know they lack
The song of true freedom I hear
My only foolish dream
An innocent dream

Why giving up on your dreams is not an option
“Growth is essential to the human experience. If you’re not growing, you’re dying. While success is the goal, the experiences you’ll have along the way are just as valuable because they fulfill our human need for growth. Life – and growth – are what happen when we’re chasing our dreams.”

Americans are hooked on the fantasy of financial liberation
About 1 in 13 American adults have participated in MLM, or multilevel marketing, contributing to an estimated $40 billion industry.
MLMs feed into the idea that “if you work hard, try hard, you’ll get rewarded,” says Jane Marie, the host of a podcast series called The Dream and the author of a new book, Selling the Dream, both of which investigate the intersection of MLMs and pyramid schemes and the broader “wellness” industry. “There’s an ‘us versus them’ mentality and it feeds on the idea that there’s a shortcut and a cheat code to financial prosperity, to achieving the American Dream.”
