We have brains in our heads.
We have feet in our shoes.
But we must remember the places we’ve been- they’re quite important too.
The sigh of relief, after making my first friend in post-secondary.
And how calmly self-assured I felt when I was understood creatively.
My first time travelling abroad, and seeing friends become like family.
The feeling of belonging was rather odd, but I accepted it readily.
The first time I had to sell myself, and had to puff my chest.
The first time I really put my skills to the test.
Watching my own confidence grow was really truly something.
I suddenly wanted to take up space, and had to time for sulking.
When things started to happen,
I didn’t worry much, or stew.
I just went right along,
and I started happening too.
So I’ll hold my head a high as I move mountains or whatever
and walk through life, thrilled about my next endeavour.
My time as a student may wear thin,
But I’m on my way up, thanks to the lovely places I’ve been.
