Seize our moment!
Posted by acc on October 23rd, 2006What we are about to embark on, are the things our ancestors could only dream of, the things our forefathers took for make belief… our paths and destinies will be the tales that great story tellers will come to muse over in the future as a Golden Time which shaped a culture… a whole community transformed into something new, a new time, a new beginning, an era that will be remembered, this will be a time to end all times, to overwrite everything that has come before, to set the standard, the new seal of what is possible, it will crush what we once considered reality and cause us to declare no more will we live in mediocirty, no more will we blend in and settle for less! Now is the time that history can change, the tides can turn, the dark can become light and a world can change.
We stand on the brink of greatness and shout at the storm ‘try and stop me Oh great storm, see what damage you can do’ and when the Storm subsides, still we stand, still we believe, still we leap into a future that shines befor eus, we no longer drift into the night as passers by, we stamp our mark on history right now at this time, our footmarks crash into the dirt and leave an eternal impression, let our names be echoed through the ages for the Glory of God is near, they will call us the chosen ones who saw all things come to pass, that which isnt will now be, what we couldnt see will now be seen and that which we once dreamed and thought out of reach will pass us by every day without a flicker in our eye!
Let us seize our moment!
