to be more like your dreams. Keep telling yourself that. For instance, while you’re driving your tin bucket of a car with the rusted out spot under the passenger’s seat that lets the cold air in, because you have to get to the store by 6:00 a.m. to open and then work until dark just to earn enough to make child support payments, and you try to get the radio to work though it hasn’t done anything but spew static in nine months, you obviously have a dream that that radio will work this time. Who knows? Maybe it will and your life will be better. Go ahead and give it a hard whack with the heel of your hand. Stick your finger as deep in the tape deck as it will go. These are all the actions of one striving to live his dreams.
