What would it be like to scale the highest mountain?
What would it be like to catch the rose before the curtains close?
What would it be like to stand on the podium in triumph and listen to the crowd adore your accomplishment, to be applauding you?
Yes, you!
What would it be like?
Can you hear them?
Listen, listen closely.
What would it be like to come home after a successful day, not having made too many mistakes, not having forgotten an appointment, not having been chastised or punished?
What would it be like to sit down, open your books and diligently work on your homework and finish it too?
Listen, listen closely.
Can you hear them now?
Take a moment, relax, and cut the chatter in your mind, focus.
You can hear them. I know you can.
You’re just lazy, you’re just not interested enough. You’re just no good for nothing and will never do anything that matters, if you don’t apply yourself. After all, you can do better if you set your mind to it, if you just want to.
Live without any excuses and you will be better for it!
So they say…
I wonder though, what would it be like to live in a world without stigmas, without jumping to conclusions and judgment? What would that be like?
I wonder what it would be like if more people cared, if they shared, if they showed empathy and understanding?
What would that be like?
Can you hear them?
Listen, listen closely.
Can you hear them now?
Listen…
