I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE A COMMON MAN
It is my right to be uncommon.
I seek opportunity, not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk,
to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole.
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence.
I prefer the thrill of fulfillment to the stole calm of utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence, nor my dignity for a handout.
I will never cower before any earthly master, nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid; to think and act for myself.
To enjoy the benefits of my labor and to face the world boldly
and say, “This I have done, and this is what it means to be a Man”

Dear YouTubers,
I wonder how many of you guys can relate to this.
This is a Poem that I've deeply memorized.
I've recited the entire piece from my Heart.
Notice why I highlighted the word "CHOOSE"?
We always have the right to make choices.
Warmest Regards,
Ray Mak
