   "Greatness is never a given, it must be earned." -Barak Obama. People have always been talking about things like this. There are many people being born into this world with privileges and advantages that other kids don't have. When your a kid, you never realize that statement is as true as it can get. When your still a kid, I personally think its okay to think like that, but as you get older, that opinion of yours has to begin to shapeshift and eventually think that it must be earned. Your parents can be rich, but if you don't cherish certain things in life, or if you simply think that everything is suppose to be a right, then chances are when you grow up, you will not be nearly as successful as your parents. Rich people always have twisted thoughts and ideas when it comes to things like this. Money wont last you forever. I think I am starting to live up to this quote and by the time I am out of highschool, I will live up to that statement with all of my heart. I do not want to be some spoiled kid of some rich guy in Taiwan. I want to be a person who earns all the great things he has in life by himself. I want to prove to the world that I am capable of more than being lazy and not working. I will live up to that quote, and I will prove it to you that I can do what I say.
