"You have to have a dream so you can get up in the morning," by Billy Wilder. I agree with this quote, because you have to be striving toward something in life to reach a desired goal. Just think about it, a person with a goal is ready to do whatever they can to get to it. I'm sure that famous people don't just wake up famous. I know they had to be ready to put in work, be determined, consistent and sacrifice a lot of things in life. People sacrifice sleep, spending time with their families, and even not having time for themselves. These sacrifices may not be as easy as they seem, but they help you in the long run.

This quote, in my perspective, is 100 percent right. The reason I have the strength to wake up in the morning and go to school is because I have a dream and a goal to achieve. My goal in life is to be successful, so I can be a role model for others, and get my parents everything they ever wanted. That's what pushes me through life, because a short term sacrifice would give you a lifetime of happiness. Everyone isn't perfect, but once you feel yourself not doing what you have to do to get closer to goal, you have to remember you have a goal to reach. For example, I know I have to get ready to start preparing for college. So, all the people that are around me that can't help me better myself or help me reach my goal, I just had to cut them off for a little while to try to get where I'm trying to go. I had to sacrifice my friends for me to achieve my goal in life, and if your friends can't understand that, then they aren't a good or loyal friend.

Now, imagine people that don't have any dreams or goals in life. They don't have a reason to strive in life, and they probably won't even care about their family, friends, or people around them that have goals. They also, would probably wake up every morning with a bad attitude and wouldn't do anything to better themselves in life. They are basically useless to the "American Dream", because everyone has a role to play in the world. If we didn't have a dream or goal how would have Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X made a difference in life? You also have to think about people before our generation, how they made a difference for us, and we have to keep this continuing.

After you have read this, what do you think about this quote, "You have to have a dream so you can get up in the morning," by Billy Wilder. I hope you feel everyone needs a goal or dream, because without them you have no future. Soon its gonna be our turn to better life, to be the future, and prepare to help the next generation after our generation and beyond them.
