You<\/p>\n\n\n\n
astound me,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and there\u2019s<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a whole<\/p>\n\n\n\n
tribe of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How did\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
get here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How did <\/p>\n\n\n\n
this <\/p>\n\n\n\n
happen?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You<\/p>\n\n\n\n
grew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You grew<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You grew<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from<\/p>\n\n\n\n
our mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You <\/p>\n\n\n\n
grew<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from our<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201ctoo little\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You grew<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from our<\/p>\n\n\n\n
trying to shape<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ourselves<\/p>\n\n\n\n
into something<\/p>\n\n\n\n
we <\/p>\n\n\n\n
were<\/p>\n\n\n\n
not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And now,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
look at<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Powerful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No nonsense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
are<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
know what<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And <\/p>\n\n\n\n
you\u2019re<\/p>\n\n\n\n
getting it<\/p>\n\n\n\n
for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every <\/p>\n\n\n\n
day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I look at\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and I wonder,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
how much more magnificent<\/p>\n\n\n\n
will you grow,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
as already your<\/p>\n\n\n\n
roots<\/p>\n\n\n\n
rise above our treetops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
