Today I met my biggest fear My younger self, Her sparkling eyes in despair Asked me if we have reached there. I, ashamed of myself didn’t looked into her eyes. I stared hard at the ground, hoping it would open and make me sink inside.
She didn’t said anything for a moment then cried out loud. Her cry pierced the air, Raw and broken as if all her hopes disappeared “I knew this would happen, I knew we would loose again, All is my fault, I shouldn’t have dream that in the first place.” Her voice sent a shiver down my spine, I trembled down to my core, I looked up at her and noticed how desperately she wanted to restore. I knew we had progressed, but right now only the outcome mattered, We had failed once again and it seemed all our dreams got shattered. She didn’t said a word after that and left quietly. I was left again alone, lonely. I stood their for some time and then went back to study.
This is my story of making progress despite failing , A tale I thought was worth sharing. My younger self is the one I fear the most , Because it feels like I have made her dreams of becoming ‘ that person’ lost. But life gave me the choice to keep moving on, So I am holding onto that right now and trying to stay strong. Returning to reality and growing is tough, But that’s what makes the journey worth enough. Happy journey!
