My Scholarship entry - Revitalizing Spirit

Ireland | Saturday, November 8, 2014 | 1 photos


I'm sorry to inform you that I will not be sharing a sad story, nor will I try to persuade you how I want an escape from my everyday bland life. For I have neither of these. On the contrary, I am surrounded by family that loves me, friends that care about me, and a job that I don't mind going to. I have student loans, a nagging thought of a future career, and similar problems that typical American twenty-something's share. So now you ask, why chose someone for this opportunity who fits so snuggly into her society?
Life is a personalized puzzle, and everybody is trying to solve it. Some are looking for their missing pieces, others are comfortably connecting the last pieces together. Different strategies are utilized in solving this life game; the edges of the puzzle, the life outline, could be solved first and then it will fall together in the middle. Others prefer to start from the top and work their way down, figuring it out as they go along.
I see everyone concentrated on connecting the pieces, but wonder, why should life be a puzzle? I want to destroy that concept and forget the pieces. Forget the big picture, and forget the scene. Explore life itself and forget the game.
