When I see the topic “I have a dream,” the first thing that comes to my mind is Martin Luther King who is well known equal rights leader. It must be enjoyable to be famous and respectable.

However, we cannot imagine the suffering behind great men. And it is excruciatingly difficult to achieve the high-level goals they set for themselves. Thus, I believe simple dreams are the way to realize our value.

Since I was a young kid,As I have been fascinated by history. As I was learning about the Napoleonic era, I realized how numerous great generals emerged during that time of great strife. The thought of a time machine to help me go to that time to become an outstanding general or brave grenadier came into my mind.

However, this is just a daydream. No one can change history; we cannot simply do whatever we would like. But being great or ordinary would depends on myself. It also means I have to make many sacrifices, especially in order to accomplish my dream—no discrimination in society, racially, sexually, or by class.  

I know that may sound impossible and naive. And it shouldn't be a dream of a teen at my age. But King can stop racism and many ladies can fight for their own rights, so why can't I attain this achievement?

To achieve my unbelievable achieve, achieve the first step is work hard. It easy to say, but it is difficult to do. Furthermore, holding onto my dream is as important as working hard. I can't just treat it as a joke or a funny issue; I have to treat it seriously. Nonetheless, I may fall one day. But the joy and experiences I get from the perocess of pursuing dreams. Just like Rabindranath Tagore said: I leave no trace of wings in the air,but I am glad I have had my flight.
