"Dare to let your dreams reach beyond you." That's what she told me, on the opening track to Common's latest album The Dreamer/The Believer Her words made me want to live up to my potential and realize my dreams: I dream to find myself, fall in love, create a family, be an author, be a teacher, be a musician, be an artist, be healthy, seek gratitude, acquire knowledge, and find God. The song inspired me so much. The collaboration of Lonnie Lynn and Maya Angelou spitting wisdom was literally and metaphorically music to my ears!
