Weekly Story Writing Contest – Week 6- The Secret Never Told Anyone
Assalam o alaikum.
Since my childhood i have always been a simple girl with big dreams. I wanted to do something meaningful in my life something that would make my family proud.But deep inside my heart i always carried one secret fear “Will i be successful or not?” This question stayed with me every day but i never shared it with anyone. Whenever people looked at me they thought i was confident and strong. I always smiled and tried to do my best in everything. But behind that smile there was always a quiet fear.What if i fail? What if i cannot achieve my dreams? What if all my efforts are not enoughs? These thoughts made me feel weak but i kept them hidden insides my heart.
There were manys nights when i could not sleeps.I would think about my futures again and again.I compared myself with others and felt that maybe they were better than me. Sometimes i even felt like giving up.But i never told anyone about this.I was afraid that people might not understand me or think that i am not strong enough.One day i was sitting alone and thinking deeply about my life.I realized that this secret fear was slowly taking away my peace.I was working hard but i was not enjoying my journey because i was too worried about the result. At that moment i understood something very important.
Success is not only about reaching the final goal.It is also about trying learning and never giving up. Even if i fail it does not mean i am not capable.It only means i need to try again.This thought gave me a little courage.After that day I started changing my thinking.I still have that question in my heart “Will i be successful or not?” but now it does not scare me like before.Instead it pushes me to work harder and believe in myself. I have not shared this secret fear with many people but writing it here makes me feel lighter.
I have learned that everyone has some hidden fears in their heart. We all smile in front of others but inside we fight our own battles.It is okay to feel afraid sometimes.What matters is that we do not let that fear stop us.Today i want to tell everyone that if you have a secret fear like me you are not alone.Believe in yourself and keep moving forward.One day all your hard work will pay off and your fears will turn into strength.
This was the secret in my heart that i never told anyone before.But today i feel proud to share it because it is a part of my journey and it is making me stronger every day.
