Where's the trust?

We had our cheerleading practice after school, i really have to thank everyone involved, and even just helping out! It was one of the usual many practices that we have, i recognise everyone's commitment and effort in making this a success. As we have gotten into the finals, we are training very hard! However, winning doesn't really matter much to me i guess. I feel the process that we have been through, is most worthy for me to feel that i have won. As much as we do not always get to choose to work with whoever we prefer(or the very childish attitude where; if i don't get to work with her, i won't give it my best; which i do not understand why people of our age still acts like that) it was a really good time to get to know each other better, be it different races or whatsoever. Everyone's thinkings are very much different, so we learnt to compromise throughout the process. Although it doesn't seem much after each practice, looking back, i feel it's a really valuable thing for the process of this growing up, and the shaping of one's character.

The most important thing was cooperation, and of course, trust. Without trust, nothing would have been successful. We really have to learn how to trust each other, it almost comes close to, my life is now in your hands, you have to protect me; that sort of thing.

You see, after standing back literally; to see from a different point of view, to see from a window and out into the scenery rather than to see what's inside that window. There's actually so much more to life. We always only learn how to see the surface of a certain thing, never did we once stopped in our footstep to actually admire the details and beauty of it. Every day is a new day to your life, a new chance to start afresh, a new moment to build and shape yourself into a better person. You wake up to think that you want to make this a happy day, and it will happen. If you wake up to be dreading about this and that and etc. It makes the day all draggy. So it's all really how you want to lead your life rather than how your life will lead on. It's all in the mind. With determination, will power is something that is ever so strong burning deep down within us. One day when we come to realise how much time we have wasted, it is also the time when we are old and too fragile to enjoy the walks of life. Don't you think it's sad to find that out a little too late in your life? So why don't we start it from young, and start treasuring every moment in our every day life, because once its over, its never coming back.
