Redefine

By Michael Biagi

I believe in uniqueness. I believe in originality. But it´s so damn hard with the media’s fingerprints all over the hearts and minds of humanity. I believe we all have a voice. We all have the choice to redeem destiny, to give wings to the dreams laying dormant inside you and me.

See the battle to realize between what’s real, and real lies...

I can see that we all love our iPods, iPads, and iMacs, but why do we need them if we can´t understand ourselves?

I’m just trying to make sense. Be yourself, because you will never be anybody else.

Redefine yourself. Today.
