Our lives begin with uncertainties and worries which follow us like our own shadows. Nothing can change our future unless we act, either knowingly or even unknowingly — it is our actions which will truly shape the future that we will inherit. Thus, the only way that we are able to move forward and look for a brighter and more meaningful future for all of us is to make sure that before we start to act, we think deep within. Therefore, a beautiful future lies within our reach, however, it depends upon our present actions.
