10/27/1992 the day that I was giving birth, I do not have a clear view of what life is about, sometimes I feel like I just go through life like a leaf that felt in the river and is being sweep away by the rivers current. An as was being sweep I encounter rocks on the way. For example, the day I found out that we were leaving Mexico to come to the U.S.A was the hardest thing that ever crossed my ears. I was introduced to a whole different world that I had to try to adapt too. As I tried to adapt to my new life I was introduced into Cristian’s world or at least that’s what I called that place in my head, where I zoom out to be alone. Every time I zoom out into my world I drew and that’s where I learn that skill that I now posses and I’m trying to master. I loved to draw people an anything that I find emotional too me. Besides drawing since I was 6 I played soccer because, is the sport where I feel free and I forget the outside world and it just a sport that also helps me go into cristian’s world.
Now in present day I am still riding those rivers current I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Moreover, I’m just doing what I think is best for me right now I believed if I do that in the future something good must come out. Now presently I attend Oxnard College and work at the fields I try to do my best in college but I need the money too so it’s something that I need to work out. Now that I graduated high school I hardly play soccer not because I don’t want too, but because I have no time. The good thing is that I still draw and when I draw; My mind frees itself and trap emotions are left in every single shade I put on paper.
I would like to talk about my future but my future is blank, and all I can say is that I am trying my hardest to find out what I want 10,20,30,40, or even a hundred years from now. All I have to say that as my present turns into pass, and my future turns into present, I will be learning the true meaning of life. I feel like I’m not the only person that is dealing with this but this is the rocks that we all encounter on the river. Sorry I didn’t talk about my future, but my future is blank.
It's tough to balance work and school. Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteLife is hard and no one knows what the future holds for us but i'm sure the future holds some thing good for you. change at times is what we all need. just don't give up. strive for your goals.
