The Challenge

   
     It is awkward to realize the sentiments, opinions and thoughts I used to defend are changing radically in short period of time. For some reasons a few months ago I was thinking about the wasting of the time and currently the same is happening again but in a different way. The world turns and things change, the next round you will not find them exactly as they  were before.
   Maybe I should feel regretted because I did not make a good use of the time to do what I was supposed to do because that was the attitude the most of people was expecting me to do but why did I leave myself out? What I feel does not count anymore?
  There comes a moment when you should choose the path you believe will be the best for your life even if you have to be against factors which will not back up your choices like a tough torrent which push you away but you keep struggling to reach the other side of the border and it is exactly what is occurring to me.
  The decision has been made and there is nothing that makes me change my mind because this time I listen what my heart told me to do and that is what matters to me. I am into a stage that is already representing more action and less planning. Last week I sent my résumé for a recruitment agency which conduct its chosens to work in a cruise on Mediterranean waters for nine months aiming to make enough money to afford my engagement for a scholarship in America, honorable end, isn’t it?
  As in many aspects of our life, doing what we know is the right thing to do, is not always, initially the easiest thing to do. We do have to summon up personal integrity and courage to make a conscious (aware) choice to change the path that we are on.
