The Magic of Dream
"If there's a magic in boxing, it's the magic of fighting battles beyond endurance, beyond cracked ribs, ruptured kidneys, and detached retinas. It's the magic of risking everything for a dream that nobody sees but you."
-Million Dollar Baby, Best Picture 2004
Dreaming is a beautiful thing,
so aim high and spread your wings.
Soar to places, where others may not see.
Be what you were meant to be.
Dream big of something beautiful,
but don't fill your mouth when it is full.
What chokes you may kill your spirit.
Be cautious every minute.
There's a great risk in living a great dream.
Don't make your stride on hasty whim.
At times, you feel like you're fighting alone
and troubles crush you to the bone.
Dream big, but dream right.
Shed your blood, make a fight.
Let your spirit make a scream
Dream big and live your dream.
