The Change
What will you do to get what you want lie, cheat, steal? Is achieving your goal worth the taking of a life. Not physically but rather what it means to be able to function in this society, a house a career, a family. Will at the end of the day you look back, smile, and say I did it. I got what I wanted no matter the cost. Moreover, what will you do when you have achieved your goals? Taken the world by storm and built your empire. Destroyed friendships, betrayed family and made enemies. Will you buy more, Make more? What will you do when this day comes, will you still look back and smile? Or will you wonder why your best friend is married and you were not invited or why your sister ignores your calls. Do you now wish to change the past make amends and reconnect. Is it too late? Can you be forgiven? Do you dare to ask? Do you dare to try? Have you finally realized it is time to change your ways. To think not for yourself but for others. To be more, and give more. However, you must know that making these changes will not replace the past you cannot get back the time that you have already lost. There are no assurances of the future by making the change you may become poor, and reduced to living on the streets. I am not the seer of the future I do not know his plan. Nevertheless, I can promise you my friend that you will be the happiest you have ever been because you have made the change.
