The Journey Within

Rency Clyde Leynes Paradina

There comes a time when the path of others seems to differ from yours.
There are people ahead of you, and you see them prosper, reaching milestones, and you feel left out.
Suddenly you feel pressured, doubtful, and uncertain and feel the need to catch up.

The need to compare is a one-sided mirror.
It only displays success, but the outcome is the result of struggles that are hidden.
The mirror leads us off course from our own path,
A path that is uniquely yours and does not need to mirror others.

Life is a journey to a path of the unknown,

An experience that contains your dreams and aspiration,
A path that leads you to becoming the person you are meant to be.
