There comes a time in it, where you finally realise; You can’t change it and you can’t control it. But you can certainly go with it, and you can damn well make the best out of it. Regardless of where others may be in it, or how much farther ahead you wish you were in it. You finally realise that it’s okay to fall behind, it’s okay to go at your own pace, and it’s perfectly normal to make your own pathway through it, even though there are perfectly well structured ones right before your feet. It is okay to find your own way through it, in your own time and at your own leisure. There comes a time in it, where you finally realise; You will fall down, you will be hurt, you will be battered and bruised and spend days in tears, and you’ll wish you never experienced it. But you have a choice of whether you fight for it, or you allow it to swallow you until you become invisible. Regardless of how many times you are knocked down by it, and told ‘no’ and you ‘cannot do it’, there’s always enough stamina and strength buried deep down within you, ready to remind you that you can do it, you can live it! You realise that it is so much more difficult, so much more confusing and that there’s so much against you whilst going through it. But on the same note, there’s also people who are experiencing it too. Those who love you, and want the best for you. They will forever be behind you in it, pushing you forward, encouraging you to grow and experience all that it has to offer. Finally, you realise that you’re not alone. And that as crazy as it can be, living it entirely, without reservation or hesitation… Life, is worthwhile.
