Finding My Path: A New Chapter Begins
Tomorrow marks the beginning of a new journey — one that takes me to a different place in search of my luck, not just in my career but in life itself. It’s a step toward growth, a decision fueled by a deep longing to understand what life truly means beyond the comforts of home.
I won’t lie — I’m afraid. The uncertainty ahead feels daunting. But there’s also a strong pull within me, a voice telling me that this is something I need to do. For the past year or two, life has been rough. So much has changed, yet I feel like I’ve been standing still. While the world around me moves forward, I’ve been stuck, waiting for something to happen. And now, I realize — I have to make it happen.
Leaving home for the first time, away from my parents and sibling, brings a deep sadness. It’s the kind of ache that comes with growing up, with finding a new home away from home. Maybe I’m just overthinking, worrying about all the things that could go wrong, fearing that without familiar faces, I might struggle. But in my heart, I know this is a leap of faith I must take.
I believe this is God’s way of teaching me to trust Him more. Challenges will come — some I will understand, some I won’t. But I pray that whatever happens, whether good or bad, I will find the lesson in it. I promise myself to be resilient, to persevere, and to push through, no matter how difficult the road ahead may seem.
As I step into this new phase, my only wish is for my loved ones to be safe and happy. I hope they continue to pursue what brings them joy, just as I am setting out to find mine.
It’s not just my family I’m leaving behind, but also my friends — those who have stood by me through my ups and downs. Whether we like it or not, we all have to carve our own paths to grow. It doesn’t mean our friendships are over; it’s simply the reality of life. I am deeply grateful for the moments we shared, the laughter, the lessons, and the unwavering support.
To the person I was with for the longest time, even if things didn’t end well between us, I want you to know that I am happy it happened. I hope you find it in your heart to forgive me. We may no longer talk, but sometimes, I randomly think about you — not in a romantic way, but in appreciation of the moments we once shared. I truly hope you find what makes you happy.
As I write this, I know it may sound cringey, but time and experiences have given me a new perspective. Life moves forward, and with each step, I learn more about myself and the journey ahead.
This is just the beginning, and though the path is uncertain, I walk forward with faith, determination, and hope.
