| Too often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared of what people might think if we had tried. We let our fears stand in the way of our hopes. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when we want to scream. And we shout with the others, When we should keep our mouths shut. Why? After all, We do only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid. So stop. Try something you've never tried. Risk it. Enter a triathlon. Write a letter to the editor. Demand a raise. Call winners at the toughest court. Throw away your television. Bicycle across the United States. Try bobsledding. Try anything. Speak out against the desiganted hitter. Travel to a country where you don't speak the language. Patent something. Call her. You have nothing to lose And everything Everything Everything to gain. JUST DO IT. - As you can tell this came from a NIKE Advertisement |
| No matter what I choose to be, I choose to be a better me. No matter what path I decide to take, I promise to believe in the choices I make. No matter what happens in my life, I'll keep pressing on and do what's right. No matter what I learn each day, I'll give my heart permission to lead the way. No matter what I say or do, I'll stick to my word and follow through. No matter what reality says, I'll hold true to the dreams that lie inside my head. No matter how grown up I become, I solemly swear to keep my spirit young. No matter what, no matter when, I promise to be my own best friend. |
