Sitting quietly in a corner and drawing has been one of my favourite things to do since I was a child, I would tell my sister or any of my cousins to sit down or stay in a particular position, just to make a drawing of them. Where I find myself in life now is as a result of personal decisions, parental decisions and pieces of advice from some people—but mainly parental decisions. At some point, I felt my parents knew better, but I’ve come to realize that they don’t entirely know everything and I do not blame them.
I wanted to follow a particular career path which was pursuing my passion for art, but my parents persuaded me to pursue something else because of the country’s economic status. I do not feel satisfied deep down, because I didn’t get to achieve my big childhood dreams of being an artist . Although I’m making plans with my parents’ support to make that happen now, nothing is too late.
As much as I want to achieve my dreams now, there is something stopping me—it’s not even an external factor but myself. I keep doubting myself, I’m afraid that I might fail or that I wouldn’t really be able to do it. But now, I’m working on myself to break free from all that, I’m learning to trust myself more and stay consistent.
The reason why I think most individuals in the society haven’t achieved their set targets varies, it could be because of their background—financial struggles or a family that doesn’t believe in them or push them to achieve their set goals. The country’s economic status can also be a big problem too, how can one think of chasing a dream when it’s hard to survive?
As for me, I believe and know that I’ll achieve my dreams someday.
