Be a flower.
Be a seed.
Let your growth
Arouse curiosity.
Let it fascinate
And amaze.
Let it inspire the artist
And the scientist.
Let it shock the doubters.
Let it grant hope
To the hopeless.
Let it begin in silence,
And end with a loud bang.
Don’t be an open book –
Be mysterious.
Be extraordinary,
Be undefinable,
Be a ball of fiery fire,
And above all,
Grow in silence,
And let your success
Do the talking.
