Be.
Be strong,
because life requires bravery.
Be powerful,
because success requires confidence.
Be stable,
because emotions must be in balance.
Be courageous,
because every day is a risk.
Be grateful,
because you may not get a second chance.
Be kind,
because, in turn, everyone will be the same.
Be conscious,
because not a single moment is worth missing.
Be open-minded,
because change is inevitable.
Be happy,
because there is no other way to be alive.
Be determined,
because your desires require dedication.
Be humble,
because no one is so great.
Be attentive,
because mistakes are to be learned from.
Be understanding,
because you may be the only one.
Be nurturing.
because all that is needed is love.
Be virtuous,
because innocence is the heart of wonder.
Be true,
because lies will break delicate ties.
Be eccentric
because the norm will constantly change.
Be hard-working,
because life calls for success.
Be simple,
because you weren't born with anything else.
Br cautious,
because society is out to make you bleed.
Be assertive,
because, as a human being, you are too important to be stepped on.
Be optimistic,
because there's always something better when you look for the light.
Be hopeful,
because the sun is always rising.
Be inspired,
because creation cannot channel through any other feeling.
Be imaginative,
because life begs for such creativity.
Be worry-free,
because no one needs the uncertainty.
Be wholesome,
because no one else can put together the pieces.
Be your best,
because life's challenges will not accept anything less.
Be yourself,
because no one else can.
And finally,
just be,
because that is the only way one can truly live free.
