While walking in the woods and reflecting on my student life, I came across a bundle of chestnuts all huddled together. Born in the early autumn, chestnut trees produce thousands of prickly seeds. People may be intimidated by the skin of chestnut seeds, however, the inside is brown and shiny. Just like chestnuts, I try to build confidence and determination that no one can waver and inside keep a bright and hopeful ambition. Chestnuts need the time to ripen just as I need the time to prepare for new goals. The flavor of a chestnut is heaven once it has matured. People may wince if they try to interfere with or judge my belief, yet if they help me they will see the positive aspects of me. Neglect may compel them to stay in their rigid shells, however, nurture helps chestnuts grow into glossy hazel seeds.
