I spotted those words on what remains of the Berlin Wall. “One day we will be in charge.”

It wasn’t just graffiti. It was restless energy, an unshaken belief that the future can be different. Must be different.

That spirit—the refusal to accept things as they are, the audacity to imagine something better—is what drives progress.

And when I see the youth of today walking tall, carrying that same fearless energy, it fills me with hope. Because youth isn’t just age—it’s a state of mind.

And the future? It belongs to those bold enough to claim it.
