The beauty of being alive upon the Earth
involves a journey towards discovery
as well as an unknown destiny,
so, dare to uncover the hidden mystery
of anything unknown
along with the willingness to reflect
on how much one has grown
while living the only life
that one could ever own,
and by traveling across both time and space,
choose to make the world an even greater place
by becoming a source of hopeful light
with the willpower to carry on
to create a brightly golden sense of power
as mighty as the break of dawn
