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.
