never forget: ?Meera, although things seem awful now, if you think in a
positive manner you will be successful no matter where you are. A sword must be
sent into a flame, melted and then beaten into a shape again and again in order
to make it strong. You too must endure whatever life gives you and know that
life is sending you this obstacle for a reason. You will be stronger in the
end.? I wiped my tears away and had an enormous smile at the other end of the
phone. I began to feel an aura around me that derived from positive thoughts.
The move was made. I came into my new school having to cope with making new
friends, understanding each one of my teacher?s standards; dealing with the
advanced, stringent academic ?expectations? along with ?normal? teenage life. I
had to deal with parental pressures to get straight A?s. It was because of my
grandfather?s encouragement and belief in me; I was able to surpress and survive
a massive challenge I had to undergo.
These words from my grandfather were extremely pivotal and made me realize that
the situation I was facing was not as bad as I thought; in fact, it was not bad
at all. What was happening to me was good because I would come out as a strong,
goal oriented, structured, and motivated individual. My grandfather?s priceless
words reminded of me of another saying that has been asleep in my head until I
heard his words: ? Whatever doesn?t kill you makes you stronger.? I was going
to be stronger after all of this.
Now I see and acknowledge life in a whole different light. I look forward to
new experiences as well as challenges to endeavor. No longer do I react to
things in a negative way. I am a gleeful, strong-willed and structured person.
I don?t know why my grandfather waited so long to tell me these words that have
changed my life. Maybe he knew that I wouldn’t be ready for them at an earlier
age. Maybe he knew that the day would come when I would need to hear them.
Maybe he saved this advice for this particular time. Maybe, maybe he knew me.
