I AM, I CAN, I WILL

I AM--two small words, and yet,
its a powerful place in which to be,
its my life, im living in it,
i am everything you see
I am responsible for the level of my work,
and the choices that i make.
I am responsible for the values i profess,
And for the ways that i communicate.

I CAN--two small words, and yet,
Its a powerful place in which to be,
It's my life and Im living it,
Traveling the land, sky, and sea.
I can earn the respect of others,
and gain their friendship true.
I can honor all things living, and
Take care of my mind, health, and body to.
I can do my best each day,
And I can know my best is great.
I can continue to progress,
And move closer to my fate.

I WILL--two small words, and yet,
It's a powerful place in which to be.
It's my life and I'm living it,
I will be everything, just wait and see.
I will use my talents wisely,
Learn to manage the moods of life.
I will respect my ups and downs,
Ask for help in overcoming strife.
I will promise to see clearly.
It reveals my strenght to win,
As I arrive at mutual resolutions,
And look for my answers from within.
I'm young, still learning, growing, changing,
yet I have ideas, noble goals and plans
For things like a healthy environment,
World peace and a crime -- free land.
No longer a child, and not yet an adult,
I am still a teenager,
But don't underestimate my value,
Because I AM, I CAN, and I WILL........
