Life

Break away from the shackles of the mind.

Remind yourself of your presence,

your existence,

and fly high into the limitless skies of freedom

with your wings of fire.

Burn yourself from within as if like a star.

Set ablaze your passions,

your ambitions,

to become something in life 

and march ahead.

Penetrate the deepest of your dreams 

beyond this world's imaginations.

Churn your thoughts and

trample the downbeat currents.

Conquer your unrest,

fill conscience with zest,

and brace yourself

for the mightiest battle

you have ever faced,

Life.

You remind us so powerfully to consider these moments, this life we have been given, and to set it free without the chains of fear. Living is a struggle, but we face it because it is so much more that one can imagine, and yes, we grow stronger in the fight. Thank you my friend!
