Water is one of the main elements which make up the fabric of our universe. Comparing myself to water, I wanted to reflect on my experience with the pressures and limitations of social norms. Just like water in a glass, I was placed in confinement. But, once I left those confining elements, I was able to place stones within the container. Taking up space in the cup, the rocks left no other option for the water but to overflow, moving freely where it wants. Now, just like the water, I may determine my own direction without being restricted to a certain ideal.
