#modernization vs values  


Be

Hurry up to the station or you'll miss the train
The train of thought
My thoughts
Your mom has already taught you
I am yet to see a better teacher than my daughter
Today I give you the liberty.
To cover your body with as much material as you want
But remember beauty is in the way you address not dress yourself
Be beautiful
If you find beauty in microskirts and booty shorts put them on
If you find beauty in a flowing dress do it
If you find beauty in showing off your birthday suit on insta go ahead
If you find beauty in covering your body to the neck do it
Be fashionable
If you find it in to have a mask on your face get a good paint job
If you find it disturbing to liken your face to canvas it's your call
If you find it cruel to pierce mother earth with heels put on flats
Most of all be wise not otherwise
Wise enough to remember the values you live by
Wise enough to make right choices not popular ones
If anyone asks you to shake what your mama gave you
Shake your head in response for she gave you a good education
Remember you don't have to live long just right
