The Passing Of Time

in The Ink Well2 years ago

I'm absolutely glad for where I am today because looking back in time, it just shows how much I should cherish this moment.
Failure had never met me face to face throughout my 18 years of life until I gained admission into the university which was exactly what I'd written an entrance exam called JAMB (Joint Admission Matriculation Board) which you should pass to get qualified to entering the university. Truth is I had actually started failing before gaining admission which is glaring before me right now. There's really a difference living with your family for years and going out into the world and create a new space for one self and I'd say it was quite an epic experience which have shaped my life in all ways to becoming who I am today, more determined and having a rigid mind of my own.
You never know how fast time is till you look back and see how far you've come.

There absolutely should be no regret except lessons that one experiences.

Make hay while the sun shines is very effective in my case not just mine but everyone as it just sets one above every other person. Words cannot go unsaid if one doesn't admit the fault that first comes from one side in which I had to apply preparation radically than in my first five years in school, it was very incredible as I always had a F in every semester for five consecutive sessions. Who does one fault as when everything goes as not planned, you end up blaming yourself because you are responsible for every reaction that happens in your life, one way or another and the solution is always to hold control at all times regardless of what may be.

I had to learn the hard way coming from where I came from. I was itching to write I came from a good home then remembering that many others came from the same background.

My last two years in school as a result of continuous failure lead to two sessions extra and that was exactly when I realized that I could actually do better because I had known what would happen, how it would happen. Life is just an accumulation of what we go through. We are who we are and also become who we want to be at any point in time.
What works for Mr A may not work for Mr B. My time in the university was my first ever time being away from my immediate family and begin moving up with different individuals from different backgrounds. You simply meet the good, the bad and the ugly even those that aren't who that claim they are.

Always be ready to walk on your own and reach your goals is importantly the lesson I reciprocated to get to where I needed to be which is done with the university and I did without trying to always need people like I did in five years of schooling.

Thanks for visiting my blog till next time.

Striving on your own in a new environment away from your comfort zone is surely a struggle to live by. I have similar experience and I know the feeling of getting anxious if I can get into the university. I'm always just playing it cool, though I actually want to explode inside every time I have to do things that I'm scared to do.
