Be diligent! Push toward your dreams
big and small, close and distant
for they are always reachable
They aren't illusions.
They're at the tip on your tongue,
begging to be tasted.
Slave on, day-in, day-out.
Slave on, until the day draws to a close.
Slave on until your dreams come true.
Work through your fevered brow
and aching bones, and you'll eventually
earn your place in the sun.
