There is always a candle waiting for its wick to emerge with a bright array of flame. There is always a candle waiting for its purpose to become submitted to life. Every living soul contains that candle wishing and wanting to take on a challenge and become the most noticed brightest candle that has ever been lit on earth.

The most difficult task of pinpointing the dull wick that lies beneath the skin is deciding whether you have the individual determination to light it yourself. Life consists of many long roads that lie ahead with many twists and turns containing decisions that must to be made. These challenging roads will bring perpetual surprises along the way, keeping your candle just out of burning distance.

Although sacrifices are guaranteed to be made, in the end, the beautiful exhilarating flame will become the jewel changes the world. I aspire to experience the thrill of discovering and watching my candle wick flare with life changing flames, that will allow me the strength to assist others with revealing the inner candle which they clench inside.

You can bestow me the chance to shine bright and ablaze our world. So I ask, please will you save me a spot in college?
