Life

moving

forward in

confident strides

towards your own goal

even when you are thrown

clear from your limitations;

be strong, fearless, and know it will

be an adventure with your own self.

Never give up on a dream to be free

of your own self doubts, don’t trick the weary mind

into believing the worst could happen despite

your best of intentions. Fight each fear and for the

right to not worry about what you cannot fix battling

on your own. Yes!

Together strong.

Our roots, make us

bolder. We heal

each other with

all our own strengths.
