Approaching the world, so wide and grand,
A fate unknown, but take a stand,
With barren lands and rocky hills,
And mysteries hidden in the rills.

Temptations lure, but take heed,
Instead, believe in yourself and lead,
For you are capable of so much more,
Just take that step, and soar.

Don't be afraid to take the plunge,
The journey may be tough and strange,
But with determination and grit,
You can conquer any trial or pit.

So take a deep breath and take that chance,
And see the world with a brand new glance,
For you are strong and brave and true,
And there's nothing that you cannot do.
