I am standing here
In the middle of nothing and everything
All is behind me and ahead of me
This is such an awkward place to be
But here I am
It’s just me
As uncomfortable as this place may be
I know this is just where
I am supposed to be
I am filled with so many uncertainties
I am toying around with
The idea of greatness is here
Yet I am slightly frozen with fear
But, again, here I am
It’s just me and this big ol’ dream
I do not know what may come of any of this
I just know that I have to keep going
I have to keep pushing
I have to, I have to, I have to…
The only way to get part the things that are behind me
The only way to reach the things ahead of me
I have to reach deep within me and
Take a chance
Moral of the Story:
Many times in life, we are afraid to take a chance because there are so many things unknown to us. On the one hand, we understand that pursuing new endeavors is the path we must take to get ahead; however, on the other hand, stepping outside of our comfort zone can be hard to do. Here is the thing, there is no right or wrong way to live life and once we accept this fact the opportunities for living are endless. We have to trust both ourselves and the process of life. In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Life is a journey, not a destination.” You have to know that things will always work out in the way that it is supposed to be. If you’re thinking about going to college for the first time, planning to return after a long hiatus, considering changing your field of study, or making any other major life change… Do not be afraid. Be bold. Walk fiercely on your journey. Take a chance!
Love. Peace. Resilience.
