Your vision is not limited to what you can see, but what your mind can imagine. Many things that you take for granted were once considered unrealistic dreams by previous generations. If you accept past accomplishments as commonplace then think of the new horizons you can explore.

 From your vantage point, your education and imagination will carry you to places which we won't believe possible. Make your life count--and the world will be a better place because you tried."
