"You were born with potential
You were born with goodness and trust
You were born with ideals and dreams
You were born with greatness
You were born with wings
You are not meant for crawling, so don't
You have wings
Learn to use them and fly!"

anyway i couldn't agree more. the way i see this quote is: we are born with so many paths ahead of us.. in each path there are doors that lead to unlimited opportunities, adventures, moments we will treasure... and with that bad experiences.. some of us tend to get stuck because of a great fear of disappointments (or in other words bad experiences). however we shouldn't fear disappointments but look forward to greatness and real happiness. we get those things if we act our best, follow our beliefs and grow as human beings.

I somewhat agree. I think everyone has potential as every one is given the same opportunities. Public schools are open, the government can give you food and shelter and even healthcare so there is no reason that no one should be able to " fly". People need to learn to fly as all the do is wait for hinge to be handed to them, waiting like a puppy, crawling. If you can fly then you can be on your own and if not the government can catch you if you fall to get you back on your feet so that you can do something great.

The plenum of a possibilities is the Universe wherein you were born. The harshness of the world is what destroys absolute potential. Others are so calloused, hurt, hopeless, distraught, enslaved, ill-minded, defeated, unhappy, etc. so much so that when they see the inocence of potential they try and destroy it immediately. A child learn to become all of these negative things from the environment in which it lives. As an adult it becomes unconscious to who it is and to its potential.
