Change

Change the perspective

Change what's right and wrong written or spoken

Change what's yours or mine – ours

 

Change you and me – us

 

Change the distinct lines separating us into neighborhoods – community

 

Change the voice that says you aren't good enough

Change the battered lives by working alongside them, not for them

 

Change the mentality.

That you can't pull yourself up by your bootstraps anymore. Never was.

Let others help pull up your bootstraps.

Then use those boots to give to your community.

 

Paint your own future.

 

Change trust.

Trust change.
