The truth was, it was much easier to quit than continue.
All quitting took was a single second, while persevering required hours of hard work and dedication
The only thing I had ever been committed to was my education, and that was only because of my parents.
If school were optional, I most likely would have dropped out ages ago.
Looking away from the stands and back down at the soft tan-colored ground of the arena, avoiding Mira's gaze, I froze.
I had thought this world would be a new chance for me to redefine myself and change for the better, but I was bitterly wrong in the end.
The environment might have changed, but as a person, I had remained the same.
Change isn't as easy as simply deciding upon it.
It requires effort, energy, and most importantly, time.
Changes don't occur overnight; they require days, even months, of consistency and perseverance.
I wanted to change...but I didn't have the time.
