When Life’s Purpose, Mission and Future are Gone, Let us Dream!

Summary/Abstract: What should we do if we are unclear about our own potential, individual and community significance, mission or future? Referring to Pope Francis and Martin Luther King Jr. the author is suggesting that one viable option is to apply the dream-eutopia creation process. Unlike utopias in the ordinary and negative meaning, eutopia hints at a deliberate, critical goal that can be achieved with a high probability using a balance of faith and reason. Three stages are crucial in its development. The first is an analytical description of the current situation; the second is a critical assessment; and the third is the establishment of objectives, methods, and principles for accomplishing it. Following this lead, this paper presents four examples of dreams-eutopias based on missionary, religious, and ecclesial experiences.
