literally stay awake literally stay hungry hungry for enlightenment hungry for dreams dreams small dreams big big aspirations big opportunities opportunities golden opportunities knock knock consistently knock loudly loudly to be heard loudly for all all of humanity all or nothing nothing ventured nothing gained gained perspective gained insight insight razor-sharp insight so deep deep as the ocean deep as deep can be be hungry be awake awake! do not sleep. awake and ready ready to pounce ready for anything anything is achievable anything is possible possible is as possible does! does success matter? does it? it does, of course. it obliterates failure failure to act failure to try try your best try to get ahead ahead in life's race ahead of everyone everyone in your way everyone doubting you you can do wonders you are amazing amazing wonders

You blitzed it my friend. I have never seen this form before, and reading the intricate pattern was fascinating. Its wise, it flows and makes sense. As you are, so it is, (I have said it before) very unique. Much enjoyed this one Edward. SV

Thank you very much, Eve:-) It's a perplexing form, for sure. I haven't done one in a long time!
