The American Dream signifies that you can be whatever you want to be, regardless of class, color or creed. “All Men AND Women Are Created Equal” is a powerful foundation and goal that we as a nation are continually striving to achieve.  And yet, there is a backlash, a resistance that is keeping us from this unity.  It is simply an archaic mindset (ingrained in some since birth, and passed down for generations).  The beautiful thing is that the mind is not actually Set; it is impermanent, and can be changed.  How? By telling others that they are wrong?  That gets you nowhere.  Simply living as an example.  People are watching you; your friends, colleagues, and certainly our children.  You don’t Force acceptance on others, you inspire it, by living a joy filled life, that accepts All people as not just equal, but equally beautiful in their myriad of different ways.
