Stay strong even when the going gets tough.
Let your voice be heard amongst all.
Take a stand on your position.
Perseverance and Endurance will help you when you fall.
Do not give into their jeerings.
Follow your Dreams.
Believe in yourself.
Stand Tall and Reach(STAR) above and beyond the stars.
Make the best of every situation.
Learn from your mistakes and Stay Strong even when the tide's high!
