Seeing in the Dark
To dream in color one must know what color is - Anonymous
Recently, a group of children in a village were asked what they would like in their environment in the next 10 years. All of them answered with two things: We would like roads and electricity. None of them envisioned anything for themselves specifically.
One may think that it was a general wish they had for the betterment of everyone living around them. But also consider that these children were never exposed to the 'real world'; they probably didn't know wonders living in a city could bring like studying in a classroom, reading books, and watching movies. They only thing they could imagine was what it would be like to have a light bulb in their house.
Dreaming of carousel horses and cotton candy? Only if they knew what these things were.
They were simply trying to see in the dark
