Where the mind is without fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
- Rabindranath Tagore

With due respect to the great Rabindranath Tagore I apologize for tampering with his wonderful verse I'd like to add (quite selfishly),

Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let ME awake....
Help me fight with the demons of my mind so that I can make my home, my city, my country, my world be a better place...
