Dreaming Child

I'm back. I just finished my two year adventure, in search of wonderful public art. I'm going to start things off on a very positive note:

Now isn't this beautiful. I have no idea who painted it, but it's quite nice. A child reaching for the stars, and in essence, reaching for their dreams. Sing with me friends, "I believe...I can reach the stars...and live my dreams oh yeah. I believe...I can be the best...the best that I can be oh yeah."

But what are those other stars doing? Crashing back down to the ground. Those are other children that dreamed big and ultimately failed. Your no better are you little boy or girl (I can't tell). Why even try then? You might as well just get pregnant or get a job at a burger joint. Time to give up. I give this one a, "Don't kid yourself, you're not gonna make it but look at the painting. It has pretty colors."
