I remember when i was a young man seems a long time ago.
In those days i was a big dreamer with high hopes and ideas.
I wanted to conquer the world and sail across the seven seas.
To travel to foreign lands ,to feel her golden brown sands.
To inhale her breath, to look into her eyes, to embrace the earth.
To plant myself deeply into her soil and to be reborn again.

You are on a mission
