CROSSROADS

Excellent Project by Don Peter Dator

High school life is coming to an end. It came so fast that I think I'm still not ready to let go. Though that's part of life. Change, I know it's pretty hard to accept it but that's life, everything changes. It will be very sad to see that I'll be separating from my batchmates to whom I've been with for the whole of my high school life. On March next year I do hope that more than 300 of us is going to get up that stage and get his/her diploma. For me, that would be the next step in the stairs that is my life.
Ever since I was a kid my parents had been telling me what I had to be since I come from a family of doctors no doubt that I might someday be able to join them. I have seen what its like to be a doctor, all the hardships that I'll have to go through. But even with all those hardships, that will not stop me from aiming for my goal. Perseverance would really help me in times wherein some people would just give up just because its to hard. There's one thing that I had learned so far is that you never give up not unless you don't have any progress anymore. Because I know that everything counts be it small or big. A small improvement can mean a lot to me. Because either way be it a fast way or a slow way I'm still getting to the end and that is my goal.
Once I reach this pinnacle in life that is college life I would be at a crossroads. It is the time where my life could go anywhere. It is where I would set my path.
Being at this crossroad would either lead me to a good life where all my dreams are set but this road will not be a straight one, it would have crooked paths but in the end the reward would be great or would it lead me to a bad life, to an easier path with less crooked areas but in the end my life would not be as great as I hoped to be. No matter how hard it is, I would definitely choose the good life. Everyone wants a good life but not everyone wants to work hard for it.
As I look at it now I am quite excited at what the future may bring though I am not one to rush things. I still want to enjoy these last few months of my high school life and I want to make the most of it and so when I leave I would have something to look back into. The best part is that God is always there for us guiding us, protecting us, and ensuring us that we will have the life that we like as long as we are fit to have it.
