Golden Time

Golden Time(Lakshmi Varma) Failure.Regret.Defamed.These were the words that I got constantly reminded of the day since the age of 13. 13-its such a beautiful age isn't it? The beginning of teens and the feeling of feeling absolutely great! And for me the age of 13 was even more special than any other year. August 2010-21:20pm was the time I made the biggest decision that changed my life. I was standing in front of the mirror and decided that acting is something I secretely love and it has become my passion and obsession so you know what I am going to make it into a career! It was a 2 minute reflection of how I was feeling for a couple of years and I myself didn't know why I was feeling that way.But today was the day I realised why.That night I fell asleep with a satisfied smile because since that night I had a motive and a goal in my life.But it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be.The struggle to stardom begins the day you want to become a bollywood actress.The next day I woke up very early and the first thing I told my parents was my dream that I wanted to turn into reality but they just laughed and laughed and laughed. My dad,continuing to laugh,said "you know how to act?Go on show us". It was definitely not the reaction I was expecting but I acted a scene but they still launghed. They just simply couldn't believe that I could act. Since then whatever I used to think completely changed. My dad began to tell all my relatives about this crazy dream I had that he couldn't believe I could ever achieve. Suddenly my aunts and uncles came up to me and said that it is nonsense and i will fail. This definitely had hurt me a lot and it still does today but when I actually sat down and thought about it I felt happy. It gave me the strength and determination to achieve my dream and show everyone that nothing is impossible. It has been 4 years since I realised what my dream actually is and since then I am dreaming day and night. In fact there has not been a single day that I have not been thinking about this beautiful dream of mine.This dream has not yet been fulfilled because I am still young. But it will one day and I will not give up! I don't know how I will but I only know that I will fufill it. My only message to any young teen reading this today is that if you have a dream like me then be determined and dream about it every single day.But never give up or think you can't achieve it because someone says you can't and if they do prove them wrong! I know that one day my dream will be fulfilled and I know yours will be too!
