wear your whitest shirt

What would you do when you find yourself trapped in a dire situation, when your believes are tested, when you are even threatened by the voice in your own head? Should you wilt or melt under the pressure? Or should you bloom like a flower, even directing yourself towards the source of the heat? Can you make yourself be counted? Can you say that you stood on your toes, when mountains of pressure are on your head? You don't need the strength of a mighty ant. You don't need the muscles of a grizzly bear. You don't even have to be YOU. Just be who you envisioned yourself to be. Be the hero you told yourself you could be. Be the warrior that would save your love one and her clan. Be the observant arrogant genius who could solve puzzles and mysteries... for fun. Be the mortal who could walk with Kings, and yet have the humility of a commoner.

SO, what would you do when you find yourself as the only one who could fill up the shoes of the world's expectations? Do you stay on to fight the good fight? Or do you choose to take flight and leave all behind? Take the path that you know would make yourself proud.
