Every journey has its beginning. I was a tiny bird that never wanted to fly out of my nest. I did not want to leave my comfort zone. My biggest fear was flying high, and reaching the skies. But my dream was to explore life. I only had two choices, give up on my dream or face the fear and work towards my dream. Well, I chose to face my fear of flying high, and exploring life. So, I flew all the way to Australia. Years back, I was given this opportunity when I was finishing my undergrad. But I was stubborn and said 'NO'. Of course, I was too scared to leave my 'nest'. As I said, every journey has its beginning. So after three years, I finally had the guts to accept the offer, fly to Australia, and pursue my postgrad.
Deep inside, everyone has this fear that I had. Break that fear, face it. It is not easy, but it is better than regretting for not doing it later on. Remember nothing is easy. However the moment you face it, everything will be easier. I did regret coming here, but somehow I started learning a lot about life and people. Journey is a great teacher! Australia is the beginning of my journey. My journey will continue, and no matter how hard it gets, I will not quit!
If you have a journey waiting out there, go for it! Never miss that opportunity, and never quit.
More stories to come!
