(A/N: This is something that my drama teacher gave my class to memorize it but i thougt i shoud share it with you guys.)

Society will draw a circle that shuts me out, but my superior thoughts will draw me in.

I was born to win if i do not spend too much time trying to fail.

I can become a citizen of the world if i do not spend too many energies attempting to become local.

I will ignore the tags and names given me by society since only i know what i have the ability to become.

I will continue to let others predict, but only i can determine what i will, can, or cannot do.

Failure is just as easy to combat as success is to obtain.

Education is painful and not gained by playing games or being average. I have seen failure destroy millions with promised hopes and broken dreams.

While i have the opportunity, i shall not sit on the sidelines bitter with despair and wish later that i had become a literate lifter of this world instead of a failing leaner.

I will use each day to the fullest. I promise that each day shall be gained, not lost - used, nit thrown away. Yet it is my privilege to destroy myself of that is what i choose to do.

I have the right to fail, but i do not have the right to take my teacher and other people with me.

God made me the captain of only one life, my own. Therefore, if i decide to become a failure, it is my right.

We were all promised a pursuit of happiness, and that is what i must do? Pursue happiness and success for myself. No one will give it to me on a proverbial platter, and no one will care as much about me as i must care about myself. But i must be willing to accept the consequences for that failure and i must never think that those who have chosen to work while i played, rested, and sleped, will share their bounties with me.

I will wave proudly my flag signifying that i am a failure by choice. But i will never envy those who have selected to wave their unfurled banners announcing their success.

Education and success can be a lifetime solace. It guides goodness, it gives at once grace and genius to governments, communities, cities, townships, villages, homes, and palaces.

Without education, what is a man? A splendid slave, a savage, a beast, wandering from here to there believing whatever they are told. God is not some cosmic bellboy who comes at my beck and call. If i want to achieve, the first step must be my own undertaking. Likewise, if i want to fail, that too is my choice. Time and chance come to us all. Whether i decide to take that time and chance is indeed my own choice.

I can either be hesitant or courageous. Life does indeed maroon the hesitant, but inspires the brave.

I can swiftly stand up and shout. "This is my time and place. I will accept the challenge, or i will let others make my decisions for me."
