DREAMS

28/8/1963,Washington D.C.,The great Martin Luther King gave one of his most famous speech,"I Have a Dream".

One part of it was:
"I have a dream,that one day on the red hills of Georgia,the sons of former slave owners and and slaves will sit down together at the table of brotherhood...."

In the end,He not only won the Nobel Peace Prize of his works but made the African Americans equal in status to the white americans.

In fact,we do not need to go "international" to find wonderful dreams!Our "Bapa Kemerdekaan" Tunku Abdul Rahman dreamed of uniting Sabah,Singapore,Brunei and Sarawak.Yes,Brunei declined the offer,but on 16/9/1963,MALAYSIA was formed.Our 4th Prime Minister Tun Sri Dr. Mahathir Muhammad has a vision which all of you referred to as "Wawasan 2020" enough said.

Our very own Principal Mr.Joseph Wong has a dream that is also SMK Hamid Khan's vision,which is to make SMK Hamid Khan a "sekolah cemerlang" by 2010.Even our own Pn.Au has her fair share of dreams too,which you all know is winning the "Recycling Competition" and get RM10000 for our school!!!

Dreams may sound like a waste of time to most of you,but it important in shaping out goals.Some advantaged of having a dream is that you can get an idea of our plan and thus,planning our next move.One example is that you want to be a doctor or maybe a scientist,so what do you do?You try to excel in Science and get into science-stream classes.And then you get a degree and BOOM!!!You have the qualifications to be a doctor!!

With dreams,we have a greater desire to succed in whatever we are doing,one example is me.My mother promised me to buy me a MP3 provided I get good results,and so I really worked hard and got no.1 for 2 times and no.2 in the 3rd term.

To summarize the whole speech,dreams are important to us because "Victory is in the hands of those who dare to dream".
