“It takes gumption to wake up every day to face the fickle world and cleave to your morals and values
Not flinch at the slightest inflection of disrespect or disdain from wild ones
to not give in and mimic the mockery of blending in void of integrity
Standing resplendent among the dull and dirty ones who are no longer enthralled with the light of living
Who’ve renounced their identity for worldy pleasures
It takes audacity to live individually, intellectually, compassionately in your own way
Do it anyway!”
