COLLEGE
By Saatvika Handa

When we climb another step on the
ladder of life, towards college, our state
of mind is that of complete confusion.
When leaving loved ones behind and going
to a far off place, amidst new and
different people, the kid that was asleep
inside our hearts is awakened.
The child then reminds us of the fear that
we had faced when stepping into school.
We develop the the same emotions- fear
of not fitting in, terror of losing loved
ones and a sense of responsibility for our
own lives.
In the beginning, the world feels full
of people, enjoying, laughing, living life
and uniting for on-going activities.
We tend to live in the moment
taking all the little joys deep inside
avoiding the questions asked by our
confused,worried and rational minds.
As time passes we begin to look past the
huge cloud of people and observe the true
colors of life, sometimes light sometimes
dark.
We realise that what we had percieved as
the obvious truth was in fact the half
truth.People have many faces and we make
the innocent mistake of believing everything
shown to us.We make the mistake of
completely trusting the new members of
our life...
WE FEEL ALONE AND SCARED
After learning from these mistakes
only we realise
that the journey of life is filled with
mistakes.
Slowly and steadily we choose and trust the
people who den trust us back and become our
dear ones.
We join them in their journey and they
become a part of ours.
When we look at the past and compare
it to the present, we realise who our close
friends are and will remain throughout
this stepping stone of life..... COLLEGE.
