Personal Narrative: Going Through A Traumatic Experience

Going through a traumatic experience teaches one a lot of about one's self. Recently something happened which initiated a lot of introspection. After the event transpire, i was completely and utterly broken. I for the first time in a long time, I gave up. I started to view the world cynically. This outlook on life continued for weeks until one day. I was lying in bed, looking outside at the starry night i started to think. In this massive universe i was but a simple cluster of atoms. Why had i been so arrogant to think that the entire world is horrible just because I had a bad experience. My story was one in billions. I had become arrogant and entitled. I started to view the world s to if it revolved around me. That was day that i started twice
as hard. I worked hard to created my own happiness and future. The brilliant thing about lie is that it is constantly changing and is a direct product of one's action. I continue use the drive to this day. The drive to be better than the woman i was yesterday and better than the woman I think I am.
