These rocks you are carrying on your back,
ought to be stepping Stones on your path.
The pillars which you feel might weigh you down,
are the supports you require to hold you up.

Tough times come and go but tough people remain.
They are those who utilize their support systems.
Those who surround themselves with friends and family.
Those who know it is easier to function with support.

Truly the pandemic caused disruptions and altered plans,
Educations paused, careers terminated, and future uncertain.
But there is a silver lining in every dark cloud 
and the sun always rises at the end of every night.

The pandemic interrupted my final month in university,
and the company I wanted to intern with sacked some staff.
I had to reevaluate my goals and reassess my priorities, 
talking to friends and family helped put things in perspective.

I got to rediscover my passion for research writing,
volunteered for global events and won prizes.
Forged a deeper connection with my friends and family,
and learnt to use the rocks I was carrying as stepping stones.

– Moshood Lasisi (NIGERIA)
