HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 172, COVER OF ZAIFMAN'S "A MILLION DREAMS" BY @EMYEKANEM

Hello my dearest family🌹🌹
I welcome you to another week of hive open mic. For the theme of this week which says "Family", the song "A Million Dreams", came into my mind. The term 'family' refers to a group of people that are related or binded together by blood, adoption, law, custom, friendship, marriage, etc. I have been opportune on this blockchain to meet virtual friends who have actually turned my family.

The song, "A Million Dreams" was featured in the musical film, 'The Greatest Showman', and it can be related to this theme. This song doesn't directly mention family but it conveys the themes commonly associated with it such as, hope, imagination, and the desire to create a better life.

Family is usually the main or primary source of support, love, and encouragement for individuals in pursuit of their dreams. Therefore, the song pictures the role played by family to nurture the aspirations of its members and create an environment where they can dream big and believe in the possibilities ahead

According to the movie, the song is sung by the character, P.T. Barnum who was a child, and it portrays his aspirations and dreams for something beyond his current circumstances. It depicts his yearning for a brighter future and the hope of sharing their journey with their loved ones (family).

The fundamental aspect of the family bond is the desire to create a better life for oneself and ones's loved ones, therefore in we do, we should neither abandon, forget, nor turn our backs on our family.

LYRICS

I close my eyes and I can see
The world that's waiting up for me
That I call my own
Through the dark, through the door
Through where no one's been before
But it feels like home

They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
They can say, they can say I've lost my mind
I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy
We can live in a world that we design

'Cause every night I lie in bed
The brightest colors fill my head
A million dreams are keeping me awake
I think of what the world could be
A vision of the one I see
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make
