While on your own, you can pose to yourself rhetorical questions such as, how can you make
progres in a world which seems not to change? I am caught in such thoughts regarding what
my life would look like if I were in another world. A diffrente World Where progress has not
been declared an Enemy of the peope by being locked out of people’s mind

I ought to be a masterpiece, but look at me now, am just a mere fisherman, and can Only

I ventured into the Water to start fishing.I hate Water, there are Always Chemical spills, from

Look like = Parece

people, but with the help of the royal Family at large, niefes and aunts, alike, the Family has
continued to reign. They’ve Always got insurance policies in place, of course, daughters,
cousins, and sons all standing up to take the mantle, should the current monarch die or prove
baron. After all, it’s the same blood.

Double = Dobro

It may seem impossible, but we need a new look.

knowing that everyone has a part to play. Tha tif we are to change, we have to do Jobs and
inspire progress. The foundation to progress is beneath our feet. We need to stand up and
speak. We also need to accept facts that When I am a born fisherman, I need to know that my
