For me “If you want to change the world you can’t sleep
through it.” is both metaphoric and literal. In the past two years I’ve noticed
that I’ve been sleeping and expecting change. Whether it be a couple naps between
classes and late mornings, or letting the days drift by without actively
pursuing my goals I have not contributed to changing the world, or rather my
world. I believe when we wake up and get out of bed or whatever comfort zone we
are sitting in you will change the world as you know it, eventually witnessing
the butterfly effect and see how you have changed the world as others see it
too.
Waking up for most is the hardest thing to do; settling for
the dreams born on pillows is never enough. So I challenge myself and you as well
to roll out of bed, step away from your comfort zone and set in motion the necessary
requirements to making a dream become a reality.
My name is Priya Ratteray and my dream is to one day own my
own bakery, become a stronghold spiritually, and for my body to be physically
in shape and healthy. Today I wake up.

No more snooze button! You're wide awake and ready to hit the ground runnin :)
