I am an architect: I've built a solid foundation;
And each year I go to that school I add another
Floor of wisdom and knowledge.
I am a sculptor: I've shaped my morals and
Philosophies according to the clay of right and
Wrong.
I am a painter: with each new idea I express, I
Paint a new hue in the worlds multitude of colors.
I am a scientist: each day that passes by, I
Gather new data, make important observations,
And experiment with new concepts and ideas.
I am an astrologist: reading and analyzing the
Palms of life and each new person I encounter.
I am an astronaut: constantly exploring and
broadcasting my horizons.
I am a doctor: I heal those who turn to me for
Consultation and advice, and I bring out the
Vitality in those who seem lifeless.
I am a lawyer: I'm not afraid to stand up for
The inevitable and basic rights of myself and all
Others.
I am a police officer: I always watch out for
Others' welfare and I am always on the scene
Preventing fights and keeping the peace.
I am a teacher: by my example others learn
The importance of determination, dedication and hard work.
I am a mathematician: making sure I conquer
Each one of my problems with correct solutions.
I am a detective: peering through my two
Lenses, searching for meaning and significance in
The mysteries of life.
I am a jury member: judging others and their
Situations only after I've heard and understood
The entire story.
I am a banker: others share their trust and
Values with me and never lose interest.
I am a hockey player: watching out for and
Dodging those who try to block my goal.
I am a marathon runner: full of energy, always
Moving and ready for the next challenge.
I am a mountain climber: slowly but surely I
Am making my way to the top.
I am a tight-rope walker: carefully and
Stealthily I pace myself through every rough
Time, but I always make it safely to the end.
I am a millionaire: rich in love, sincerity and
Compassion, and I own a wealth of knowledge,
Wisdom, experience and insight that is priceless.
Most important, I am me.
