Memories

There will come a day when you will float above it all. Not like a boat, but like a glacier. Because you should not forget these struggles that shape you into being the beautiful you. Like most of the part of a glacier is hidden and unexplored, so should be yours, to others.
This hidden part will be your own secret bank of memories. The moments which made you scream with joy, cry your heart out, gaze with awe, freeze you with fear, and the endless unexplainable moments. These memories you make over the years will be your strongest support.
This bank won't only remind you of the lessons you have learnt, but sometimes it will force you to commit the same mistake time and again, just because it gives you that heightened sense of pleasure which can make you go a long way.
Not all 'mistakes' are going to be wrong you know? As there are tears of joy, so are happy mistakes.
What's awe inspiring about this bundle of experiences is that it's not only your experiences. There is so much to learn from other's mistakes or their success.
In the end you just have to grow up to be the person you would have liked your younger self to learn from.
One can be built up with so many layers that they may forget about their own core, which, in my opinion is not wrong. Because that's just because they have had many experiences, and stored them in their bank.
Trust in yourself, and work on yourself. Because someone truly said, "Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."

    1. It is. From time to time, even necessary, I must say. :)
