The Right


If there are stars that can shine,

however bright they like,

then that gives us the right

to be as bright as we can be.

 

If there are planets that give life

however vast they like,

then that gives us the right

to be as vast as we can be.

 

If there are people who could be great,

however great they could be,

then that gives everyone the right

to be the greatest they can be.
