The Reminiscence by IfyChuky(m): 1:33am On Nov 08, 2014
[b]—THE DIFINITION

(These were what went though my Mind the day I realised I'd be leaving Home eventually for Studies)

— For the first time in along while, my thought set sail. I knew pretty soon it would be me against the world...

It would be just me, all by myself having to face the ever trying times of a tertiary environment. There wasnt a thing I didnt think 'coz I was deeply absorbed in a pensive.

I struggled to imagine what the future already has for me.., I got lost in extreme fancy as I grabbled with my imagination..., I thought so hard that soon, I could feel myself no more - If I haven't been fully aware how this started, I sure would have concluded that I was just about going demented.

"How do I face life with me being the ßoss?"

"How do I sail myself to great heights, now that I've turned the Captain?"

It was then I realised that; For the first time since I was a child, I would have to be without any sort of parental guidiance, 'coz for some reason, I was displaced far away into the heart of the East...,

"#Just too far from Home!" - I cowered.

— Now, My Life and Destiny lies just in my hands to either Groom or Doom.

"How do I go about this build up Process?"

Atleast, Indeed I've got Reputations to Nuture, Maintain and Redeem...

I musn't let my Destiny crumble just for mere Euphemerals...

I just musn't let my Parents down, neither need I, to my Own very self....

These and many more had me absorbed until I beheld my Definition...


— The Definition; My Story....

And now, I could say;
—I know who I am.,
Where I've been.,
How it has been.,
Where I am.,
Whence I hail., and
Where am Headed.
I know;
What I'd be exposed to On my very Quest of a lifetime.., And most Importantly...,
I knew exactly;
What's expected of Me.,
#So, I took a deeper gasped and soon, I couldn't realise I was stil living...

— I know pretty soon, I'd be accountable for my every Action..,
Should I Fail; My Shame.., but If I succeed, ofcourse, It'd my Glory be.

Immediately I realised I've got little or no room at all for #Extenuations..,

"No need going flimsy", I mumbled.., It was then I became deeply afraid.., koz I'm now called to become whom I'll strive to Be..

I'm Indeed liable;
To what I make of Myself.,
To How, What and Whom I expend my Time On...
I'm liable to what places I'd be, and even to what I'd do In wherever I might Be..

I realized that;
To every mistake I make, I should and would be held culpable.., and
To every Greatness achieved; God and Myself are solely responsible.

Could it be am now a god to myself, 'koz Indeed, 'm a 101% accountable for my every Action..,

#I kept thinking til I was restored to conciousness — "Life from here?!", I cringed.
[/b]

#Its all about self awareness.., 'koz thats the tool to being Oneself...
