How come how long

It was a bright shiny morning.

It may seemed I was at my healthiest condition, but then again, my hair was probably a bit more thicker. 

On paper, I seemed to be on the right track: right position, right status, right what the society expected me to be. Little did anyone know, I was only inches away from giving up. And was at the starting line to hating myself. 

Then, as if I have just listened to this song for the very first time, that one shiny morning... 
I stumbled upon an awakenings.

"Wake up, before it's too late..."

I did.
And never look back.
