This is Blog Number Seven: DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM! This frames my view of the quest for Racial Reconciliation in America. Nothing is more necessary and in my humble opinion no quest as important to engage in for a stronger America.

DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM!
I don't know that I have a song that is more dear to me than this song. As long as I can remember: I have loved this song! At the end of the effort may it be that we have lived a life described in the words of this song.  God strengthen us, for it is with this view and with this heart that we approach Racial Reconciliation in America. Will you join us?

"To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far

To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause

And I know if I'll only be true 
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star"
