7 Billion
December 2, 2014
There are 7 billion people on this Earth.
7 billion souls.
7 billion hearts.
Trillions of ideas, dreams, goals.
And only one you.
It's like looking up into the sky and
picking out a single star,
It may look dim next to the other stars,
But the sky wouldn't shine quite as bright without it.
Sometimes it's hard to find worth in a home so large.
And to feel like everyone else outshines you.
But within these 7 billion people,
Are 7 billion hearts,
Each containing 7 billion ways to change the world.
