I'M A VICTOR!
Journal Journey #8
You and I are not very
different from this flower. Just as this flower is made to add color to the
world, you are also. However, students often see the world as it is. One may say, “I’m sufficed with mediocrity. I
won’t aim for higher. If I’m okay, I’m okay!” other would do self-talk and
bring out words, “We couldn't do something with it. Let’s just go with the flow and accept the fact.”
A misty pathway shrouds
the road towards change. And you may ask me “why?” Students, nowadays, are
struggling with depression, financial constraint, sexual issues and baneful
vices, hindrances that make the youth kept from seeing the silver linings, and
stagnant with regards to transformation.
In the 100% world
population, 1% are only college students. And they are meant to be influencers
of the other 99%, to be makers of difference and world changers. But most of the times,
students are painters, painting on a wrong canvas. They are visionaries but not
missionaries at all. They often constructing buildings not on a rock, but on a
sand. Will we be sufficed with
mediocrity? Will we accept the fact and just go with the flow?
Imagine the trees of the mountains. A storm doesn't stop them from growing, but it makes them strong. The fishes underneath the sea are not afraid of the raging wave ‘cause they know that wherever it would take them, they still know how to swim. And the eagles, they fly above the storm, not to entertain it, but to overcome it.
How much more with us,
intellectual, moral, spiritual beings, currently considered as ‘University
Students’. You may not be able to change the whole world, but you can change
your world. Never believe in impossibilities. Beneath the rocky surface of life
is often a bud waiting to blossom.
Never see the world as it
is. See the world as what it can be!
