Master Mind I am a man I am an African I am aware from fist glance I am perceived to be something that I am not. I have to define myself for myself I am not perfect I have imperfections as to the expectations of the world I am to myself and the Lord’s eyes a perfect work of art. With all my sadness, the sorrow, the poverty, the pain and struggle I’ve endure, I am still great. I have a hero instinct and a soldier’s heart. I live my life free of regrets and danced to many rhythms but my greatest dance is the one the to my own beautiful rhythm of pure content. I research all that which I don’t understand to avoid conclusions and assumptions. I empower myself constantly with outside knowledge I am important, I am valued, I am needed, I have a lot to offer. I need to love myself so I can be loved by others I need to take care of myself before I can take of others I will have to change myself so I may change the world I need to attract the things I need and things I want from this world I am fully aware these things will again be taken from me with out notice I have to be in control of the kinds of people I attract I am self aware and aware of my impact on those around me I am aware my words are weapons and cures I can be a one man army or can be the biggest fool. I need to give so I may receive I am owed nothing and I owe nothing to anyone. I responsible for this world I know it is my good actions that make a difference not my good thoughts or intentions. I am aware I have most of the time 3 seconds to make the first impression I am aware that there are scales on which I am out weighed I am responsible for my own happiness, my actions, my intents and own success and failures. I am given choices everyday and everyday it is up to me to make them and it is me who will lament the consequences of those choices. I am above no man and no man is above me I do not have to harm any one or anything and do not have to inflict fear for respect. I train my mind along with my body. I am growing mentally and physically I am building a legacy and a personal stamp on history I am making memories and leaving foot prints to begin thousand journeys. My character can never be replaced for God made no replicas of me. I am the ideal self-designed, friend, partner, and worthy opponent in any ring. I am who I am, this one time only and I can’t waist time trying to be otherwise, one life, one chance to do things right. I am ready to die for I’ve lived well. - Collin
