Whatever we do today, it's shadow is going to linger forever. |
It's a hard thing - growing up. Life is like a sugar-coated bitter guard. Be it our caterpillar years or the butterfly ones, there's a struggle. In school, class tests were as important as university exams in college. Little did we know that it will never matter as we grow older. But our less important decisions - like learning to paint, dance or piano (SUPW) will become our reasons to happiness. I haven't painted in a while but it has helped me in more ways than I can think of.

There are three stages in a butterfly's life cycle. Caterpillar - Cocoon - Butterfly. If we compare it with human life, I believe I am in the cocoon stage. College is the cocoon that prepares us for the rest of our life. Now that I am leaving the cocoon and ready to fly away, I am more excited than nostalgic. But like these pictures, whatever decision we take now is going to linger around us like a shadow for the rest of our lives.
