Its the year 2003. I entered high school and learned to think like an adult. Responsibilities were given to me, and I thought I handled them properly. Mistakes were plentiful, but life went on.
Its 2007. I'm entering college for the first time. New friends, new places, new experiences. My intellectual capacities, my self-discipline, my moral values. Everything is being tested. Wrong decisions → heavy consequences → learning experiences. Is it really worth it? Am I working towards my goal or am I just riding the waves? Is this really how life is supposed to be? Is my life beautiful despite all this?
Fast forward to 2010. I changed my academic path. Transferring to another degree meant hard work, but it was also another chance in proving myself, anther chance at life. New responsibilities are given, along with a renewed trust. Its been a long journey, but I know this isn't the end. I'll keep trying, and I'll never stop learning. Now comes my epiphany - your life will be beautiful, only if you decide it to be.
And I know now that I do have a beautiful life.
