What I Want To Be...
July 10, 2011
I wanted to be a delicatessen.
But I was told,
I couldn't be the best.
Then,chose to be a Chef.
But I was told I couldn't beat the rest.
Then I didn't know what to do.
I just listened to other's
For what they said,
I couldn't be the best.
But now I feel,I can be the best,
Only when I have faith and trust in myself
Now I don't have to listen to other's.
For I know I am not the best,
But will be One Among The Best.
