Shadow Of Who I Once Was

 

How can one say that their life has already started? Is it the moment when they are born? The moment they turn into a "teen"? It's a question that still haunts me, after my 15 years of existence in this world. Hi! My name is Czyrelle Caithe Miranda Pangilinan. Born on the 19th of January, Year 2008. 

I love books, coffee, autumn, the rain, anything pink, scented candles, romance, photography, beach, sunsets, sunrise, bracelets, bed, pillows, stuff toys, coloring books, movies, posters, baking, night drive, camera, flowers, music, painting, recordings, strawberries, sports, nails, skincare, family, faith, studying, friendships, and girlhood.

In many ways, life's journey can feel like waking up to an alarm clock that seems to ring at different hours for each of us. Some are early risers, launching into their grand adventures while others are still fumbling to find the snooze button, just like ME. For teenagers, the question "when will my life begin?" is often accompanied by sense of restlessness. The world beckons with it's promises of adventure, and young hearts yearn to explore. But the thing

is, this world is TOO BIG, too big for us, too big for ME and I'll continue to dream BIG. Because in order to have a life, I need to accept everything that comes and let everything that goes.

I didn't harbor the resentment toward the world for the lessons it had imparted as I matured; rather, my discontented was directed at humanity for presenting young girl brimming with light and optimism with a fragment of reality she could not quite attain. As I sat in my room, looking at the corner where my mirror was placed, I caught a glimpse of the shadow of who I once was, Simultaneously, I saw the reality of who I was becoming.
