Words by Gilles De Clerk

Gilles De Clerck

I'm a late bloomer.

It took me a while e to crack the fundamentals of life.

Like girls being human beings I could talk to without going into anaphylactic shock.

When I left for university, the world felt big and I felt small.

Everyone I met seemed to have it all figured out.

My peers knew what exactly what they wanted to study and threw their arms around pretty girls as if it was nothing.

As laughter echoed and beers clung together, I envied their infinite confidence.

I had none of that.

I spent a lot of time by myself.

When I did go out, I felt exposed.

Party or classroom: I questioned every move I made, every word I said.

At times, I felt like the world was having a big party without me.

Turns out I didn't miss much.

Everyone was as lost as I was.

They may have sounded louder about what they were studying, but they were just as clueless about the why.

They may have thrown their arms around more girls, but they didn't find love any faster.

Today when feeling lost, a smile plays across my lips.

I look around and know that I'm not alone.

Nobody else knows what they're doing either.

All of us are on a lifelong path of discovering who we are.

You can be afraid at every step of the journey.

Or smile while you wing your own.

Either way, we're all in it together.
