Beginning

I was sitting near my window, from which the beautiful tree took away my gaze. Its trunk, branches, and leaves appeared like a magnificent crown. I wondered how deep its roots would be. How deep do these roots go in the soil to form such magnificent beauty? How deep one needs to go to become like a tree. Generous and kind enough to be the reason everyone lives.

I often find myself lost in wonder, and trees often capture my attention. Nature’s beauty is so vivid it draws me in, contemplating the world’s beginning and end. As a teen, philosophical thoughts are familiar territory, and nature’s majesty only adds to the allure of exploring life’s big questions.

I’m a 15-year-old girl with a mind full of thoughts and ideas. I come from a loving, middle-class family with a supportive mother and father who encourage me to study hard and pursue a bright future. While I don’t have a large circle of friends, it’s not because people don’t like me – I’ve just chosen to focus on my own interests and hobbies. Sometimes I feel like I’m a little different, like I don’t quite fit in. But that’s okay. I’m learning to embrace my individuality and celebrate what makes me unique. I’m still figuring out who I am and where I belong in the world, and that’s a journey I’m excited to take.

As I sat there, lost in thought, I began to write in my journal, pouring out my thoughts and feelings about the tree, nature, and life. My pen scratched across the page, filling it with words that flowed from my heart.

"As I gaze at this tree, I realize that its beauty is not just in its physical form, but in the lessons it teaches me. Its roots dig deep into the earth, anchoring it firmly, yet its branches stretch towards the sky, reaching for the unknown. It's a reminder that I too can be grounded and strong, yet still aspire to grow and explore.

I wonder if anyone else sees the world in the same way I do. Do they too feel like they don't quite fit in, like they're searching for something more? I hope so, because it's in these moments of wonder and curiosity that I feel most alive.

My parents want me to succeed, to have a bright future, but what does that even mean? Is it just about grades and achievements, or is it about finding purpose and happiness? I'm still figuring it out, but I know that nature, philosophy, and my own thoughts and ideas will guide me on this journey.

For now, I'll keep writing, keep wondering, and keep exploring. And maybe, just maybe, I'll find my place in this world, where I can be my unique self and make a difference in my own way."

As I finished writing, I felt a sense of peace wash over me. I knew that I still had a lot to learn and discover, but I was excited for the journey ahead. And as I looked out the window, the tree seemed to nod in agreement, its leaves rustling softly in the breeze.
