Born on January 15, 1929, was A Martin Luther King Jr. whom one day would share with the world a world changing outlook on how people should treat and respect each other. Which then took place August 28, 1963, where he delivered a life ending speech. Today we stand in the year of 2022 where that vision is still taking its time to settle into embracing the world with its meaning from the message. Dr. King was a Capricorn full of consideration for his people, The people of the world! My mother was two years from being birth into this world and then I came in 1986 where I dreamt of my own; A Dream as well as Martin Luther King Jr, I want to share. So, how it starts off is as a child growing up in foster care, being a witness to many fascists of abused women, men, children. Starting from within their very own homes, schools and even public outing's. Even experiencing my own share of that physical abuse from all aspects. The process of my dream at that time starts to chemically form itself unconsciously. Placing myself as direct contact to help younger children then myself as an advocate in summer youth programs like S.T.Y.L.E.S. Which'd helped children like me with issues at home or anywhere else in life. Later On, I felt like this was not all to my journey. Attending college for Criminal Justice went to school for Psychology Pre- Counseling starting in 2019. Now in 2022 I have planned to become a multi-business owner where I would like to consider all emotionally, economically displaced individuals. The rights of these individuals are unequally divided as well as stagnated. Life for these persons is harder to live successfully and because I myself went through the steps I have envisioned a place where they can be valued, educated, protected emotionally, protected by having resources that will build them rather than segregate them. Taking these steps to open a restaurant that will give these people a chance to be able to focus on one personal build up at a time as well as have that support system that is stable no matter what age you are or grow to be, this system will remain. The food offered on the menu implements health management that will help reinforce cognitive thinking, productive decision making and stable support on daily life values. Learning that when hungry or not eating right is a physical downer in itself. Not having family or friends also creates mental health slowly but surely. Just like Dr. King Jr. I want all of us to be able to have equal rights to life. A balance and fair chance at life changing opportunities by helping the world become aware of areas that are not as strong as they can be. Positivity and love help deals with this man-made disease. Usually, ignorance is the cause and effect of inequality, once the restaurant hit a level of support, I will then expand it into a club/ lounge where numerous of classes will be offered to help educate, then to hold food and clothing runs to the less fortunate as well as support groups where we will help satisfy the needs of the community. In this vision I do not have a pick of whom could be helped or who should assist in helping because as a melting pot state of NY, I believe as well; "It takes a village to raise a child". And in this case, we have many to start with. My dream to help the world with hungry, quality of life, education and just regular support systems set in place of never failing in life. Even though this is a long thought-out process in the meantime food help connects all the people that want to see a change as well. In the loving memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I have a dream to also help the people of the world no matter the color or their situation if I cannot offer it directly, we have each other. It not what you do today but what you can do every day that will one day at a time change someone else life for the positive. HAPPY DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr. DAY
