"I can't"
Do you have any idea how much that phrase bugs me? Ugh, every time I hear it, it just makes me want slap the person who said it. Come on, people! You think that if you stick a "t" at the end of "can", all of a sudden you can get out of anything.
No. Just, no.
Forget about slapping you, heck, I want to slap the person who came up with this word! I mean, who says that you "can't" do it? I know for a fact that if you put your mind to something, anything is possible. It just bugs me to see you standing there, good health, brilliant mind, and you say that you aren't capable of something.
You can't do math, you can't read that word, you can't dance, you can't play that sport, you can't, you can't, you can't, you can't.
I'm am here to tell you that, I swear, the English language should be sued for coming up with these things. Really?? This isn't impossible. Nothing in this life is so far out of your reach that you can't grasp it. Nothing.
Have you ever really considered this? Truly, can your mind even wrap around what I am saying to you? I know this might be coming to you as a shock, but right now I am here to tell you that this is your life, and in the vocabulary of life, there is no "impossible". Just, "I'm Possible".
So please, will someone do me a favor and write a letter to our dear friend, Mr. Webster? Because I believe that the future of our world depends on these stupid words, and it is sad to think that we don't have the ability to see it. If we keep going down this road, bringing ourselves down, we will only end up with a nation of people who don't think for themselves, because they "can't". You don't believe me? Look around, we are almost there. We train our kids to think like this, all because that's the way we have been taught ourselves.
"You want to back out? Fine, you're weak. You couldn't do it even if you tried. Go sit out. We don't need you. We don't have time for you. This isn't your game."
No, this isn't the way we should live. This isn't the way we should teach. We are one of God's greatest creations, and there is nothing in this world that is out of our reach.
When they say the sky's the limit, remember, there are footprints on the moon.
Pass it on.
