THE FIRST FLIGHT

Finally, the day is approaching when I have to step outside the boundaries of our college and face the real world. Whether I like it or not but I have to go through this litmus test. At the moment, I feel like a bird who is ready for his first flight. Although, he is cognizant of the dangers posed by the outside world but the excitement and fervor within him makes him ignore those perils and leave the confines of his nest. He wants to soar high in the blue sky and try out the strength in his newly formed feathers without knowing that there might not be a second chance. Today, I find myself in the same place with that bird. During my stay at Marwah Studios I have inculcated a sense of confidence that I can take on any challenges imposed on me. The only thing that used to scare me a bit was the “fear of failure”. But this saying boosted my morale

“ Girten hain shah sawaar hi maidan- e- jung mein,
Wo tilf kya girenge jo ghutno ke bal chale hain "

Drawing encouragement from the bird I altered my perspective and construed that the entire world could be under my clasp. What if there is slight fall at the first attempt..?? What if there are a few letdowns at the start..?? The set of skills required for a successful flight is there. I just have to be patient for my time to come.
