My dream will come true


 

I have a dream. 
A dream to be somebody known
Who can influence and make things better in the world,
A dream that I know what's inside of me will carry me to it. 
 
But sometimes I loose faith. 
I loose faith because of my location. 
A location which is considered small yet growing,
But most of the old ways and history's past is present. 
There are few places where I feel like my dream can thrive and flourish into what I know it can become. 
 
I loose faith because of the people around me. 
They are somewhat close minded
As if they have only allowed their mind to call the world their hometown. 
No open minds; just shut off ones. 
They don't see what I see when I look at a dream. 
They see "Is it local?" and "Do I know a lot of people doing it that I recognize?"
I see "Where is my spirit pushing me to?" and "What is my passion?"
That's all I need. 
 
But I won't give up. I cant. 
I'll keep pushing, keep striving, keep believing, keep being inspired, keep wanting more, keep working harder, keep dreaming, and most of all
I won't give up. 
Because this is who I am and this is my foundation.
