As you Dream
Among the sky scrappers of a big city after a night of being kissed by the stars the sun slowly announces itself by making the shadows disappear. The Ora of hundreds of thousands of people that grew the skyline of a city through their invested life of steal and beam creation linger weather they still live or not. In every man-made structure there is the time blood sweat and tears of man's energy that stays around for ever. Their desire was to create an ever lasting monument to the local community and its history to give identity that can and will be seen for almost ever. Individual identity leads to group identity through execution of one man or woman's dream. When one person has a dream and makes it in a way about all others it becomes part of a society that gets celebrated. It may begin as yours but when you make it about a collective you have a better chance of success through unselfishness.
