/ One Hundred & Forty Two

Every single time you feel as though all your arteries, veins and capillaries conspire to laze up against attending lecture sessions- visualise your folks. How they sacrificed.. so much, to get you in the position that you are. 

The faces of contentment from your teachers- because knowledge is treasured, and is never enough. Good grades that aren't merely good grades, but a representation of du'as and hard work. Weeks of waking up with a smile because you are grateful to be here, learning- realising possibilities, priceless- countless opportunities. The forces surrounding you keep nudging for you to fall- but amidst the trembling, you decide to walk on.
Wish for your graduation day to be the day when you worry less about where you stand in this world- make it worthwhile, today. Today.
