My name is Michael Darby. My dream, the reason I feel I am here on this earth is to get one million children to write one million letters on how they would change the world and make it a better place. Once that dream comes true my goal is to turn these letters into a book. A book that will be placed and read in every library in the United States of America
One Million Letter Tour
I believe there is something special about all of us. We all have a little bit of magic. We all have something that makes us different from every other person in the world. For me that something special is a book, idea and dream. A dream that manifested from eight years of touring the United States and Japan . A dream of one million letters. One million letters that would change the world forever. One million letters that would inspire a generation of heroes. One million letters that would foster a greatness only found in a child's heart.
Even I lose the better part of myself sometimes. With so many 9 to 5's and most of us just trying to pay our bills it is hard to dream big. It is hard to think we could change the world and make it a better place. The goal of this book is to remind us all that life can be as amazing as we want it to be. If we can't remind ourselves of this, I'm confident that children can. I encourage all of you who read this mission statement to also write a letter on how you would change the world and make it a better place. You see it is hard to be sad when you are smiling and I have a feeling when your letter is done you will be smiling : )
Michael :)
