Analysis of Joshua



I am Joshua.
I am God's creation.
I am a warrior in this battle called life.
I am a philosopher in this school of creation.
I am a son, bearing my father's legacy.
I am a son, continually using a mother's wisdom.
I am powerful beyond even my own understanding.
I am courageous, going into the world without fear.
I am wise, carefully picking and choosing my battles.
I am many things for sure.
I am Joshua.
