WE ALL HAVE OUR DREAMS
22 · BLOCK22 · paragraph
Read OCR
Yes, we all have our dreams.
Perhaps sometimes, they are mere pro
jections of our selfishness . . . hopes unfair
to others . . . ambitions dangerous to our
selves.
But often, they are healthy, honest as
pirations . . . opportunities which zeal de
serves . . . victories which justice demands.
Is it wrong to dream such dreams? Does
God frown on honest hope and love?
Of course not! Rather, God has given
us minds able to dream, and souls coura
geous enough to seek the difficult—even
the impossible.
But the Divine Architect helps man to
model his castles in the air, and provides
the tools for their building. With faith
and the guidance of the Church a man may
realize hopes and aims which a cynical
world calls futile.
