There was a when I do wake up at the middle of the night, sitting down carelessly on my bed and my head bowed. Lost in thought, reminiscing on how I gained admission to the university, graduated with flying colors.
The reason I was thrown into confusion? The reason was not farfetched. I was scared of what the future holds for me and I had no idea of the right step to take. Do you ever stop to question the track to follow or whether you are on the right path?
