It’s all for the best

Have you ever felt alone or that your world is destroyed while others are happy and getting everything they want in their life, or that you’re the only one that stays on one level and doesn’t move on from that place for years and even goes down, well know that you are not alone. If there’s one thing I’ve learned all my life it’s that all the people feel the same way like you do but they just don’t show it.

I will explain to you how I started not to feel like that and only grow from my “lowest” place by telling you my life story.

It all started in kindergarten. I was 4 years old and I was friends with all the kids in kindergarten. A few weeks after starting kindergarten a new kid arrived who moved from another city. He was very shy and did not want to enter. He grabbed his mother’s leg and did not want her to leave. At the same time I was playing in the garden corner with some friends and saw everything from

the side. After the kindergarten teacher spoke to him, the boy agreed to enter the kindergarten’s entrance hall on the condition that his mom stay at the door and not leave. The kindergarten teacher called all the children to sit on the chairs and get to know the new kid. The kindergarten had such a method that every new kid would stand in the middle of a circle and the rest of the kids would sing an introductory song and we would make the kid feel happy and welcome. I really liked this method. The teacher started the song and said “Guess who came?” The class was supposed to answer “Who came?” But no one answered and we were not interested in it, the boy turned red with shame and covered his face with both hands, I felt very bad about it so I answered “Who came?”, The teacher said “A new child to kindergarten” I asked “What is his name?”,then it was the part where the boy was supposed to say his name but he was very

embarrassed so I continued the song and shouted with a smile “My name is Emi nice to meet you, what is your name?” After the boy noticed I turned to him he took his hands off his face, laughed and said “My name is Sam”. Then all the kids started to cooperate and connect with Sam. Sam opened up so quickly and told his mom she could go. 

I don’t know why but I felt connected to Sam really fast that day.
