A fresh start with venturing into the unknown

it's always so refreshing to make a new start on a fresh slate. It's not so easy to do it every time, in all the situations, but when it happens, it makes you feel a new surge of energy inside you. There's no peer pressure, no fear of failure and no sky rocketing expectations when things are being started on a clean slate. Every baby step that one takes brings a feeling of achievement, no matter how small or big. There's a new boost of confidence and a new force inside you to scale the new heights. Yet people often fear starting on a clean slate because it comes at the price of leaving behind the known, getting out of one's comfort zone and venturing in the unknown. Those who are able to muster the courage to step into that unknown , they get rewarded with the benefits of starting fresh and the pleasure of exploring the unknowns, learning and creating while life goes on :-)

Life has come a long way since those days way back in the past that I can think of. Things might or might not have been more comfortable had I not made that decision to step out of the comfort of my home to study in an unknown college ,in an unknown city, between unknown people, or, when I made a job switch just when I got comfortably set into the previous job or numerous other such situations in my personal life. But one thing that I know for sure is that life must not have been as enriching had I not done all that I mentioned above. In fact it would have got so monotonous that it might have been difficult to keep going. Every change was uncomforting to start with, but unknowingly refreshing at the same time, and helped me grow in some way. And the journey continues.....
