How do I put this.
when one's at your own crossroads in life, squinting through the dust left behind by people on the much-travelled and perfectly paved road, making out faintly the less trodden paths through the grass, or even finding a completely new path through the trees not yet trodden on, there seems to be so many options, and so little time.
how do I even describe how am I feeling right now.
This sensation so exquisite.
a tinge of fear, a smear of anticipation, a whole lot of excitement, a whirlpool of uncertainties, and from those uncertainties all the more the conviction of what you stand for is held in such clear contrast.
it is like finally setting out on a journey into an unknown land, carrying your wares you have collected thus far, packing in your makeshift haversack and hitting the road, dabbling in a foreign tongue, seeing for the first time this world I am born in, and the more you see, the more you realize you do not know anything.
 My first instinct is to run and run, till I fall and then i'll roll around in the gorgeous heather fields full of poppies, and climb the tallest tree I can find, find the clearest spring and swim in the largest rockpools by the cliffs.

Learn how people are, and realize that we are all so different, yet all exactly the same. Do take my word for it. We are all the same, no matter who you are or where you come from.

Please do what you want, stand for what you genuinely like, have a simple goal in life, the simple beauty of an afternoon by the riverside, appreciate the wind in your hair and be grateful for all you posses already, they were not your right to have and they can be taken away from you at any moment.
Be your own wonderful creature. Create a life for yourself. Enjoy your day the way you see fit, not what the media or your friends tell you.
See. open up your eyes to what's already here.

Well then, would you choose to run along the yellow brick road, plow through the tall grass to find what's on the other side, or swim through the river meanders to the other side, wherever that is?
