Here are wise words that I have come across today and have decided to share with you so that we can say them together from the heart and act them out. Dean Alfange was an American politician wrote a short piece entitled “My Creed.” It goes like this:
“I do not choose to be a common man. It is my right to be uncommon – if I can. I seek opportunity – not security. I do not wish to be kept a citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the still calm of utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid; to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly and say, this I have done.”
This was Dean’s personal creed which was also later on dubbed the American creed, prescribed for other citizens to adopt. Today I’m challenging you and I to decree the dreams that we have for ourselves, for our nations and behin to take the strides of action that will bring these visions to life. If you are not afraid of accountability you can share your dream and vision with the rest of the world on your social media platforms. ..Let’s start the journey. #VFSSS
This Life, This Is IT.
