Greater

Let us change ourselves for 
today so we can proceed to be 
greater for tomorrow.  Live this 
life not for only you but a 
generation that needs more 
leaders and creators. For the 
mind is a dormant place that 
needs to be awakened to see 
it's full capabilities. For who are 
we to hold ourseleves back and 
who are they to deny us the 
right to achieve, For we are 
made in his image and he has 
given onto us an understanding 
and the mindset to seek 
knowledge, and from this 
wisdom is built to strengthen 
our foundation. So rise up kings 
and queens. For it is a fine 
thing to place your castles In 
the sky, but without seeds from 
the soil how can one really 
know what it is like to truly fly. 
So be afraid not to think 
different take control of your  
destiny be creative through 
your visions.
