i think this pem is beyond words, it is... so inspiring & real. it gives
you a taste of reality but a truely real taste, it didn't leave anything
out, it basically told you to not give up, because life is noy meant for
failure, but success instead, life is meant to be shared and cherrished and
that we are all incredibly talented and inspiring in our own ways, we just
have to find what it is exactly that we are so gifted at, and the only way
to do that is to have faith in ourselves and believe.

I just think this poem is beyond just being a poem,
it tells you to wake up, to not be afraid of who you are and not to be
afraid of living...to remember that life is for you, and only you..
and that you should not waste it.
Itīs really in your face...no hidden message...itīs right there....
I just...wow.

Linett from Sweden
