I Promise

I promise to work hard and do what’s right, to be a leader in this game of life.

I promise to go to school and read as much as I can, to follow the rules and respect the game plan.

I promise to run full court and show up each time, to get right back up and let my magic shine.

I promise to be open and try new things and enjoy the happy that change can bring.

I promise to wear a big smile and use kindness when I speak. To remain strong yet humble with every win and defeat.

I promise to ask for help whenever I need it. To reach for my star, even when I can’t see it.

I promise to ask questions and find answers, to believe in next time and second chances.

I promise to use my voice and stand up for what’s right. And when things get tough, to keep up the fight.

I promise to stand tall, rise up, and give all that I’ve got.
