Trascendere

Spread your wings and fly,
Embrace your destiny, and march on!
Use your talents and shine.
Don't be afraid to break lose, even if it means to leave people and places behind,
because that is what life is all about… no, not to forget,
but to value what has been given to you, make it yours and grow.
Grow spreading the love and kindness that you have seen, bringing up those around you who like you at some point, need a lift, a helping hand, a carrying voice, as you move towards the sky.

Remember where you have come from (and all the places that you've been)… and those images will always be with you.
The warmth of those places will never extinguish.

Honor those that have touched your life (even with a kind word over distance and time)… and their presence will never fade.
You will never be alone.

Now, close your eyes and dream…

Stand, head up and high, see the road ahead open wide.
Be all you can be, don't apologize,
and transcend.
Continue, afraid no more... spread your wings and fly!

Intus, et incute...

"Je forme une entreprise qui n'eut jamais d'exemple, et dont l'exécution n'aura point d'imitateur. Je veux montrer à mes semblables un homme dans toute la vérité de la nature; et cet homme, ce sera moi."
Preambule a les Confessions, Jean-Jacques Rousseau
