CHANGE: IT STARTS WITH ME

Life is very crucial. You have to be precise and sure of how you do and act. Some may take it as some kind of a game in their early age but others take it as something vulnerable. Yet life is wonderful. It gives you things to understand, places to explore, and people to know. In life, we do developments. As we start in the base of our pyramid, we open up our books for others to know the simple things about us. Life is like the ocean, you never how far it is from the horizon. Just like us, we do not know when will be our finish lines. We do not know if we are nearing in the end or if we still have to travel miles and miles on the road. But as we continue our journey to the top of our pyramid, we undergo things that may change our views in life. Change is to become different or to make a difference. This change can be for the better or for the worst. We are all capable of changing. And change starts with me.

As we grow older, we realize that we are changing. It outpours to us that we are actually being developed from someone so innocent to someone that is very great. CHANGE, the one and only one thing in this world that is permanent. Our happiness fades but make CHANGE the exception. Our money can go away but never is CHANGE. Nothing will live with us for the rest of our lives but CHANGE sticks to us. CHANGE may be some kind of a silly word but it has meanings that can change the direction of our minds as we travel to our own paths.

Change starts from us. Most people say: “Don’t be afraid to change. You might lose something good but you will gain something better.” I agree not to disagree on that saying. If we want something better, we can start changing now. If we want to be someone new and far from today we can be that someone. We just have to start to change. Changing might be a difficult process, but as long as we are determined and we are faithful enough to ourselves we can be better and bolder. We are always bothered about how we run our lives. We are always concerned of other people’s voices about us. But, can’t you see that they are only insecure and jealous of you because you are better than them? And because we believe what they say we tend to change. Yes, change, but not for the better.

Why don’t we start the good change in ourselves? Why not start it now? Why not say that you don’t actually care about them and that they are only life struggles that we can pass one day? It would be a weight lifted off of our shoulders if we can be strong and if we can stand for our own. I say: I can change!

Whatever we do to ourselves, whatever we decide, whatever we think and whatever we believe, it will lead to change because these things that we view in life are our signs and directions. It is our compass to where we are going. It is our map to our navigation. To be able to change, we have to focus our energy and battery to building new things that would soon be our major concentration and not on fighting the old parts that were once a bother to us.

As a young teen of 16, it isn’t too late to realize how I had turned my life. It isn’t too late to be on the right path and change my direction. This is only the beginning of something new. This is only the start of something better because I know that change starts with me!
