out of my mind

Crazy they call me;
And crazy I must be,
For I dream of a world of peace,
No hunger, no war, no prejudice due to differences.
A world in which man actually cares for his brothers.
Where a man is judged on who he is
Not what he has, wears, colour of skin, God he follows.
A worl in which disabilities aren't considered inabilities.
So they call me crazy for having this dream.
I mean no sane person would have this dream.
Mahutma Ghandi and Jesus had this dream
And look at the result of their dreaming.
For this dream they gave their lives
And that has to be a sign of being crazy.
So why do I have this crazy dream?
Why should I care to have a better world?
One where our children can live without fear.
Why do I care?
I care because i do.
And in this cold world if caring means your crazy
Buy all means call me crazy.

Sounds pretty sane to me. Good job expressing yourself.

And heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.--> Blake~
