Building a dream

For the past three weeks in His-story, i've been learning about how society destroys anyone that dares to dream beyond their means. How dare a poor kid dream of going to college and becomming a successful mid-class person.

It leaves me wondering how society will treat me based on my dreams...
I want to be a successful latina business woman
I want to find a love so profound that it would light up the sky with stars filled with love
I want to earn enough to support my family and give back to my mom and the community
I want to have kids that will be movers and shakers for their generation
I want to be rescued by someone on a white horse

Stephen Crane (author of "Maggie: A girl of the streets") illustrates that those who dare to dream, dare to go against society, and must pay for it by death.
He forces us to see society as it is.

Despite it all... I will continue to dream, even if it will never come to fruition.
