And he said to me,
"Smile,
Because the world is yours.
Live,
Because we all believe in you.
Breathe,
Because life's easier that way.
Look,
Because God gave you two eyes to do so.
Listen,
Because sometimes it's better to not talk.
Run,
Because sometimes you need to go faster.
Learn,
or else there will be one more wasted person in this place
And Remember,
or else you might become as invisable as you feel.

And I said,
"I'll smile because I'm happy
I'll live because I have a chance
I'll breathe because I want to live
I'll never be able to see and hear more then I already do
I'll run only when it's necessary
I'll learn new things every day
And I'll remember,
but only because I want to remember this moment."
