It's my 21st birthday, and I don't know what to expect from life; however, the 21 years of my life have given me numerous memories I couldn't forget. Every year of my birthday night, I ask myself why I was created; nevertheless, I never expect to get the answer because I know this is the most complicated question someone can ask themselves. Therefore I come up with the idea that life isn't about finding myself. Life is about creating myself. I have decided to be water because "Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, and it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow, or it can crash. So be water. Life has not always been easy and will never be easy, but we must survive. On the other hand, "Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder. Learning about it took a long time, but I am grateful that I discovered it at least. My family, friends, and acquaintance have been incredibly supportive through this difficult time. I could not have gotten through it without them, and I'll never forget their support and kindness; they have my deepest thanks. Especially my best friend (Fahmeda Sumaiya Sumu), My heart and soul are forever indebted to you. Thanks for being awesome and being there whenever I needed you. I wish you could feel the gratitude that I'm feeling right now. Last but not least, life couldn't be better for me, and at the end of the day, I can say I am happy.
