Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

I hear the sound of the clock ringing again, reminding me that time is moving forward yet here I stand. Doing nothing but waste my life away.

Waiting for something to happen that will urge me to move and continue on. Not knowing what it is, still, I wait.

Everything is moving and changing however no matter how fast I run. I'm still being left behind. There are so many things to do and I don't know what I should do first. Panicking, I messed up my pace and it caused me to move slower than the rest eventually I stopped moving altogether.

I looked and saw that everyone was so far ahead yet here I am. Stuck in this place brooding about how I should move forward. It seems that the more I think, the slower I move.

I wanted to catch up but my feet won't move. I was trembling.
Trembling due to my fear of never catching up and not knowing what lies ahead.

I was used and comfortable to being here so I was scared of what might happen if I leave. Thinking about it, it wasn't so bad being here. It's not as good as up there but it's comfortable.

However! It's wrong, it's good but that place isn't the place where you're meant to be. You haven't even finished half of your journey. There's something better for you out there, don't stay stuck in that place. Move forward, no matter what happens just continue.

Change is supposed to happen, don't be so unfamiliar with it. You might think it's comfortable for now but that won't last long. This journey you're taking isn't supposed to end this way, those who got a head start in the destination are just waiting for you if they're not then the place is waiting for you to come over and see it's beauty and the wonder it possesses.

There are times you'll get stuck and slow down but never stop no matter how hard and scary it is, just keep moving forward and you'll get there.

Do you know why time is gold?

It's because it never happens again. Each day, it will be a different one compared to the last one. It might be the same but it goes on and never repeats itself that's why it's precious.

We may not have all the time in the world but it's important to just take it easy and relax. You run too fast or walk too slow either way you'll get lost. You walk with people hand in hand to this journey of life so you'll guide and support one another. That's how human works after all so to those who helped you along the way, don't forget them no matter how little or big their contribution and helped towards you because they remained and guided you all the way through there.

The fun part about it is that it's a journey, an adventure you need to take that is full of unknown things you've yet to see, discover and understand.
