FROM THEN TO NOW
FROM THEN TO NOW
Once upon a time
as a child, I used to look at stars wishing that I could reach them. I used to
look at the birds flying in the sky wishing that even I could fly like them. I
used to look at the rainbow wishing that I could take a slide on it and whether
it is a rainy day or a Sunday, no matter what I always loved to play with my
friends running far away from the house. And I always used to love playing in
the rain even though my mother denies it, sometimes she understands what she
has missed in her childhood and allows me to play in the rain. I used to be
a child who used to always be playful,
and active in participating in various activities.
But as I grew up,
things changed and more than the stars, I could only see the darkness, the
things which were happening around me made me more frightened, though I want to
fly like those birds, I used to shed my wings with the fear of being hunted in
this cruel world.
the slide of the
rainbow no longer excited me as the world has taught me fear of heights, and I
used to stick to my house no matter what the situation is as I used to have the
fear of being judged by this brutish world.
Later I realized
that no matter how this brutish world is, and no matter how it judges me, I
need to stop being stuck in the house and not stop my dreams and have started
to come out and have started doing the things which I like, started dreaming
again the things which I wanted to be and what I want to accomplish in my life.
Also, we need to
think about the people who have always been there for us, supporting us whenever
we fall and adore every little thing we achieve. No matter how the
world is our loved ones will always be there with us.
