Watching the world turn dark around me I stare at the light-less world with wonder. The footsteps left by my feet are softly imprinted in the ground behind me, all alone. Into solitude I fall again, betrayed by my own path. Or am I.
I walk a road by myself, my dreams and my way of life make this so. But, I look back at the solitude of my past and I wonder what I have learned from these lonely times.
People are only as amazing as they let themselves believe. I realize now how many mistakes I really made to get where I am now. This is a change, a will to be different than before, to get that little bit closer to perfection. Confidence alone is never enough, I need to push past my comfort zone and put myself out there, and I have to be honest with my intentions. No more regrets, no more hidden thoughts. I have confidence in myself and the ability to overcome the perception that others will throw on me.
So, I will walk toward tomorrow with this head held high and my eyes searching the horizon for a world I dreamed of. I will find those dreams, and I will meet more people. My vision is too narrow, and I don't have enough connections to go anywhere.
I will be alone when you see me, and that's how it should be. But I will be walking with the support of many more people. Those people will grow from day to day, just as I do. And each year, I'll meet new people and grow my network. This is a beginning of throwing myself into the world and making connections for myself.
