Emerging from the digital arena, drained but defiant, I knew I had fought my best. My parents, my eternal optimists, echoed, "You've already won. You conquered weakness, silenced doubters, and earned the right to dream". And then, the result was a victory anthem, an invitation to IIM Nagpur, the melody of success sweet on my lips. The interview was an intricate ballet. Every step measured, every word weighed. The acceptance email, a teardrop of joy rolling down my cheek, whispered the five magic words, "We are proud of you", from my parents, the orchestra in my journey.
Today, I step into the hallowed halls of my dream world, the scars of battles fought and won etched on my spirit. But the journey isn't over. Screens and shadows will remain, and new obstacles rise with each sunrise. Yet, like Abhimanyu, I stand tall, spear of determination in hand. Like Arjuna, I fix my gaze on the target, my parents my Krishna, guiding me through the tangle. This is not just my story; it's a drapery woven with the threads of every dreamer fighting their own battles. Remember, when you stumble, rise like a phoenix. Run, fall, dust yourself off, and run faster.
For in the tapestry of life, the threads of struggle add color, and the triumphs, shimmering gold. Never stop weaving your dreams, dear reader. The light at the end of the tunnel waits, and when
you finally reach it, the view will be breathtaking.
