In 1963, Martin Luther King Jr told the world ‘I Have A Dream’. For many, this dream sounded far from possible. However, because of Dr. King’s brave pursuit of this dream, the chance for peaceful coexistence that seemed so impossible in the 1960’s has become possible for us all today.
John F. Kennedy dreamed of sending a man to the moon. This was a dream that surpassed the imaginations of many, who deemed this dream impossible. On July 20, 1969, man took to the stars and took their first step on the moon. This opened up the minds and imaginations of those that had once doubted this momentous ambition.
Most recently, a man named Felix Baumgartner smashed the boundaries of what we had all previously considered being ‘impossible’. Felix jumped from space, free-falling 24 miles before landing safely on earth. He broke the sound barrier itself. Now, if you do not find this evidence enough that there is no such thing as a dream ‘too big’, then your dreams must be out of this world! Felix defied the universal laws and what we had until now considered to be an ‘out there’ impossibility.
Throughout history and even in our present day-to-day lives, there have and are people continually making the impossible possible.
The moving film, electricity, the women’s vote, the internet, airplanes, same-sex marriages; there have been many, many magnificent but seemingly impossible dreams that have been made possible. Made possible by the courageous and daring few who with a single dream, challenged the doubts and even resistance of others to change not only their own lives for the better but also the lives of others. It is to these people that we should be forever grateful. We should be grateful to these people not only for the lasting impact they have had on the world but most of all, for showing us that no matter how big or unusual our dreams, there is no such thing as ‘impossible’.
