We all have hopes and dreams. Some are achievable with hard work, some with luck, but mostly we need both.

“If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.” Martin Luther King Jr.
