It becomes important to understand that our actions will always have a bearing on our future. I seek to learn from my mistakes, respect life and the lessons I was offered to learn from. My early years were greatly influenced by my father, and I still continue to appreciate and feel&nbsp; his presence, I understand every experience I am put through is an attempt to help me grow as a person&#8230;I lived my early life with a sense of carelessness, and then with a sense of caution&#8230;and for few years now, I allowed my heart to guide me&#8230;I have had immense happiness to allow myself to immerse into life with completeness and sincerity. I realized that, where there is light, there shall exist a shadow. Shadows tell a tale of light&#8230;they speak of absence of light, dark spots caused by impenetrable emotions we choose to hide. In this world of manifestation, there exists a constant struggle between shadow and light. And in my struggle, I lost &#8230;shadow won&#8230;Now, I stand emptied seeking light&#8230;.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\">&nbsp; <\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\">While most of the people who went\/ are going through this phase hustle through their lives to seek a new beginning&#8230;but I chose to stay even when I was treated with no respect&#8230;to understand, respect the moment&#8230; and if possible rekindle hope, but I understood that it is very difficult to rekindle hope if one carries around anger, frustration and disappointment&#8230;I learnt to forgive myself, forgive others and set them free&#8230;only then I understand I will be more willing and open to accept life and enjoy it. I do not regret my decision to stay&#8230;I learnt life&#8230;and wait to see light of the day again.&nbsp;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rubric Note: There are no great debates against the argument which is presented in this post.
