In retrospect, the twenty years of my life seem to be just another phase of existence in time. A phase with evanescent memories, happy moments and sad events. When I begin contemplating my life, I feel the lived fear.
There was a perpetual conflict of the soul with the outside world, the good with the bad; there still is. But now I seemed to have gained some sort of energy and experience to understand the ways of the world. A maturiy has set in and I am no longer a gullible individual – I have finally created an identity. I am no longer a “rebel without a cause” and can understand the teenage blues. My horizon of thought has now widened and I can see the bigger picture of the world.
I have come to accept certain norms and to question certain others. I refused to be caved down by the dogmatic world. I choose to do what I can do to make it better. I do not get distracted by trivial issues; but I am genuinely concerned about the developments in my environment. I am a learner, a listener and an observer. Yet, I am undefined. Perhaps I have morphed.
