Growing up: Iceberg Vs Waves!



Being preserved inside a nest makes you feel secure, healthy and safe but there comes a moment in your life when you need to leave that safe shelter and explore. I believe I am in that state, where I am trying to explore whats safe for me and whats not. Big shit to deal? Uhm yeah, it was a bit tough at beginning. To experience new lifestyle, where you have to think about your next morning's cooking duty before you sleep, to think about your undone laundry when you are working for 12 page essay deadline and to socialize with 10 extra people when you are walking back to your room. See, these are not big deals but when it all comes together, it feels like an iceberg is right infront of you and you're waiting for it to hit you. Well, fuck the iceberg! Let the waves pass slowly and I'll deal with ice berg later on.



I guess its all about growing up, where reality hits you hard and everyday you're blooming. 



You often hear statements like, "Common you're in Masters, do it".  "Be Independent".



Those statements acts like a motivation for you to see how your upcoming journey is going to look like. I am glad I took this journey to explore myself and know what I lack and what I have. 



The last note that I want to add hear is,



"Believe in yourself, someday you won't even have to hear those statements"
