Aim High

This is moment that I've been waiting for. To march on stage with full pride and dignity, for I have survived the roller coaster ride of my student life. As I have received my diploma,the recognitions, the medals, awards and certificates, I cannot help myself from being emotional. For I have reminisce those times when I wanted to give up, I wanted to end the pain, the high expectations from people around me, the endless  problems, stress and anxiousness. Those days when my stomach was empty for I have lost my appetite due to busy schedules, and not to mention how I saved money for educational purposes. That I even forgot how to prioritize my health. Those nights when I can hardly sleep for there were still paper works, assignments and projects that was needed to be done on time. Those moments when I just wanted to cry the whole day, for I do not know if I can still make it. I doubted myself, I doubted my strengths, I doubted Him. Those unending financial problems. The poverty I was experiencing made me sick. I remembered those people who kept on dragging me down. Those people who told me that I cannot make it, those people who made me feel that I am worthless, the painful and excruciating words they have thrown on me. They're one of the reasons why I aimed to be on top. To win all the challenges and obstacles that life brought to me. I do not want to give them the satisfaction of my failure. I wanted them to see me standing high, with proud smile on my face, with medals on my neck, certificates and awards on my hand. I proved them wrong. Now, I can finally say that ' I made it!'
But realizations hit me hard. I forgot those people who believed in me. I forgot them while I'm busy making my own name on the spotlight. I've received these worthy medals and certificates, yet I've also lost them, the people I dearly most. I've lost the true significant value of worthy, and they are my family. I've lost it.
