An American Dream

The American dream is nothing more than everyone views on being capable to achieve in equality. To achieve something within ones’ life, we, Americans often set out our goals before we dream. Our dreams are set at a mind as an individual. We look forward to wealth, freedom, and happiness. All which are given to us by the same opportunity. In reality, an American dream does not have an exact definition. But associating to American lives, I describe the American dream of having any opportunity and freedom given and allow by the American citizens to achieve their goals through hard work and determination.

Thomas Jefferson once said, “American dream came through long and patience, from desperate war, to fight, to be on one side of another, and especially to be proud of every soldier who had fought for those of an American whose dream had came true”.
About the American dream, Thomas Wolfe once said, “…to every man, regardless of his birth, his shining, golden opportunity…the right to live, to work, to be himself, and to become whatever thing his manhood and his vision can combine to make him.” I've heard people said that the American dream has become the pursuit of material prosperity; that people work more hours to get better cars, bigger homes, given by the fruit of prosperity for their families, yet have less time to enjoy their own prosperity. The American dream is beyond the grasp of the working poor, who must work two jobs to insure their family’s survival. Yet more often, we look toward a new American dream with less focus on financial gain and more emphasis on living a simple and fulfilling life.

If equality from our American dream are more open minded for the individual who do look forward to working hard, the new society of having an American Dream are truly to be accepted in reality. This also applied that no true American dream would become proper unless someone begins work their blindfolds. Equality from the American dream is given to everyone with the same benefits, but it will not always be fair. Equality describes the American dream in its own way and how we describe our American dream is up to us.
