To be called to lead is a passion that burns your core right down to your heart, it's the type of passion someone feels after witnessing a tragedy. I feel pressure behind my eyes and my being is silent as my mind becomes enveloped in thought. I take view of events that worry my spirit. I see the world ever swiftly changing and look to be held by The Lord to calm my terrified, childlike body. I find myself with tears down my cheeks in the solitude and protection of the night for I fear my treasured country of liberty may one day be lost. Unless, a voice, a voice that has never been heard before is spoken with the sound of protection from reassuring lips. A voice that isn't afraid to show it's passion and emotion when a tragedy engulfs its home. A voice that understands and searches for help from trust worthy professionals that are able to realize their mistakes and become better for it. A voice that lifts its people's dreams high above their expectations and encourages them to live their lives to the fullest. A voice that follows ever so closely to the word of God. It looks to God when time becomes unbearable and manages its lands following along his guidelines. Even though God may seem distant and irrelevant, we are the strongest country in the world aren't we? This is the voice that I am desperately searching for. I hope to discover its secrets and use it for the better of the world. Wether I am the strongest leader in the world or simply a contributor to a more vast picture, if God so wills it, my voice will be heard.
