The loud scream of a baby could be heard all throughout the city. A new life had appeared and had slapped everyone in the face with its cute bright smile. I remember those years when I had been born. It was bright and I couldn’t see anything for awhile. But then the years would pass before I could ever understand the world. .
PIT! PAT! went the sound of the rain. It’s earthy smell and taste captivating all. The kids splashing in the muddy ponds not having a care in the world. “You can’t catch me!” screamed one as she ran away from her friends. As I look back at that moment I start to think that giddy smile of innocence and joy was destroyed, slowly, by the world and its lies. And I had no way to prevent it.
Officially being a teenager, 13 years of age. The moment where I realized I was no longer considered a child but instead an almost adult. I was to nervous to be apart of another chapter of my life called High school, happy to experience something new. But then came the stress of "fitting in". And before you know it the people I grew up betrayed me. And I became my own bully.
The lights glimmering, blocking out the darkness that follows. Dancing to the music of love and what seemed like eternal happiness. “I could dance forever” said the young me who had witnessed the best 2 minutes of my life. But in a while that heart full of love would be broken, unknowingly mended whole with the power of whispers full of sweet nothings from others.
Graduation! From both high school and college were the biggest days of my life. The feeling of fulfillment and accomplishment. The life ahead would be up to me. Each choice whether good or bad would be my fault. No excuses. It won't be easy. I knew that for sure, but with God's help I knw I can accomplish anything.
Life is like a road, it's full of bumps and cracks but no matter what, it always leads you to where your going. It all depends on how you drive the car itself. Life is bad and life is good. But you will be fine in the end. Always remember that.
