Where’s the Dream?

Our nation needs a dream. Whatever your political persuasion or philosophical bent, most of us across all strata of society get energized by the dreams of those who lead us. Right now there is a sensational vacuum.

One of the reasons we may be stumbling, fumbling, mumbling, and bumbling as we enter 2010 is that “Change” is not a dream, and deflecting major decision making to outside groups — the UN or Congress — is definitely not a dream.

What is our next destination as a nation? Kennedy used space; Johnson had the Great Society; Clinton had the end of big government as we knew it; Reagan had the end of the Soviet Union.

America is truly the place on the planet where personal dreams can come true, but we need more and bigger goals or aspirations to strive for and take pride in . . . or to hate and target. Dreams show us the way. Dreams help us all set timelines, deadlines, and expectations.

Big dreams help define the next phase of our destiny. The bigger the dream, the greater the impact.

We are waiting.

Have great holidays and keep asking, “Where’s the dream?”
