Path of worries


I can feel homework, test, stress, and worries pilling up on my plate as high school is coming to an end. A chapter is ending and a new one is starting. At this point I do not know whether I am more excited or scared. Excited to experience new things in life or scared of falling on my face and failing in life. Yelling at the top of my lung is what I want to do in order to express all my feelings. For years I created a mental idea of what my life would be like after high school and now I have a fear for not being good enough for myself. There is times where I begin to feel like I will let down the people I love the most and that they will judge me. However, I am beginning to think that the only person judging me is myself and I am stoping myself from reaching my full potential. It is safe to say as I begin to realize where all these fears and worries come from, I will stop being afraid of being in my own skin and enjoying the journey of reaching my dream.
