Beginnings are scary. They frighten you. Shake you out of your wits. Make you wonder whether what you are doing is right or not. Creates doubts in your mind. One even tries to avoid beginnings just so as to remain in the comfortable routine that they have so become accustomed to.
On the other hand, beginnings can be exciting ! They give you the opportunity to begin your life from a completely new perspective. Provides you with the chance to meet new people, to explore life more and to get to know your own self better. Beginnings are great.
How does one define a beginning ? For someone each day that dawns might bring a new beginning, each year that ends might signify a new beginning, corporate houses might agree to accept the completion of one financial year as a new beginning. For a student preparing for major exams, achieving a pre-defined target of completion of syllabus might be a new beginning.
Beginnings lead to ends and an end signifies a new beginning. I'll say a beginning is that moment in our life when we decide to change things, when we decide to change ourselves. Sometimes it's not always what we decide, sometimes it's the circumstances that mould themselves in such a way so as to lead us to a beginning and then it is upto us how we approach it.
Where is all this coming from ? A new beginning in my life, second year of college is just about to begin. As excited as I am for this new beginning, I am more so apprehensive and worried because the coming semester, the coming year would change a lot of things. On one hand the pressure of studies and the travelling time will increase due to the shift of our college campus but it will also bring along with it new people, new moments and new memories worth cherishing.
It is not the time to regret all those things that ought to have been done in the past academic year or to be proud of those that we were able to accomplish, but rather to brace ourselves for the coming year, cause due to the lack of time-turners, going back and changing our actions would be an impossible task. The least we can do is to learn from them and move ahead confidently.
We all make mistakes. Who doesn't ? But to let those mistakes set you back is probably the worst one to make.
"When things go wrong as they sometimes will,When the road you are trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit -
Rest if you must, but don't quit. "
