Change

I've heard it said that you can't change who you are a leopard can't change it's spots but to me that feels wrong we are constantly changing once scared to talk I was shy yet now I'll talk to strangers on the bus once without training I found it hard to find a job but now with training I never stop during the second world war normal men taken off the streets became soldiers ready to take a life with terrorism they take little children and teach them how to kill life is full of change sometimes the words of a passing stranger can change the direction of your future sometimes support gives you strength to become more than you where before life is full of change every day you have a chance of changing your life you can walk away from violence you can learn to over come your anger you can learn to trust you can learn to grow you can learn to change
