Growing up
Every human being started off as a small life in our mother's womb, like a plant in the soil. It all started from a seed. A small seed. Plants need to be watered every day and also needs sufficient sunlight for it to grow tall and bloom in this world. Each day, the plant will slowly but surely grow bit by bit. Growth like this we don't see it, we only wait for it to show a part of it. Once we see a leaf coming out from the soil, we know that it's growing well. Days, months, years past by, the plant became a full fledge living thing. Even though each plant has their own uniqueness, there is one main thing that all plants are similar, that is giving us air to breathe. There are days when plants have their own challenges, sun with no rain, rain with no sun, deforestation, pollution, etc. This whole process is similar to humans. Parents found new hope when we were still growing. Even though they couldn't see our growth, they knew we were growing well. When we were born, it was their most happiest day in life. A new hope for them, a new beginning for us. Slowly yet surely, we will start to crawl, walk, talk and learn. Days,months,years have past, what did we actually learned when growing. Pain, heartache, problems, disappointment, happiness, gratitude, success, etc. Most of the times we were blinded by wealth and love that we forgot who we really are. I guess growing up made me realised things that i never could have possibly done but actually did. People who i once or twice met became close friends. Friends who were once close became distant. When we thought that nothing could stand in our way together, i didn't face reality then. It's hard knowing someone you like, liking another person. Someone you need most, just turn their backs away from you. All humans are the same, the only one thing that differentiate us are our smile. One thing in life i learnt was, was to move on. You can't change your past but you can change your future.
