To my fellow Youths, quoting the wise words of Martin Luther King Jr, These are the most important and crucial periods of our lives, for what we do now and what we decide now at this stage may determine which way our lives shall go, and so the question is whether we have a solid and sound Blueprint. As King Jr suggested some of the things we should put in our life's blueprint.

1. Belief in our own dignity, our own worthy, and our own somebodiness. Let's not make somebody make us feel that we are a nobody, always always feel that we count, always feel that we are worth and always feel that our lives have ultimate significance.

2. We must have a basic principle, the determination to achieve excellence in our various fields of endeavour. We have to be making decisions as days and years unfold on what we do in life, what our life's work will be. Once we discover what it will be, lets set out to do it and we should do it well. Be a bush if you can't be a tree, if you can't be a highway, be a trail. If you can't be a Sun, be a star, for it isn't by size that you win or fail, just be the best of whatever you are.

3. Finally commitment to the eternal principles of Beauty, love and Justice. Well, even when life for some of us has never been a crystal stair, we must still keep moving, we must keep going. If you can't fly, run. If you can't run, walk. If you can't walk, crawl, but by all means keep moving..... Some quotes from Martin Luther King Jr.
