To the one who chose to not go
I could start this by giving you a million reasons why studying abroad can be the single best decision of your life.
I understand
Sometimes these choices are hard for us. There are not one but hundreds of barriers, both physical and mental, blocking our path.
Maybe you find it hard to trust. Trust should not come easy.
Maybe the big world scares you. Well, the world is a synonym to change. And changes also don’t come easy.
Maybe it’s the money. Sometimes, we see fuzzy and think that the barter isn’t worth it.
Maybe it’s not time yet. And your procrastination gets the best of you.
Maybe it’s complicated. With the family, with the heart, with the mind that can’t seem to decide.
Maybe you have not dreamed big enough. Because you don’t know what ‘big enough’ is yet.
Let me tell you a secret
All the students who took the leap of faith and went to the land that called their name had just the exact same problems. They were just really scared and excited to face life heads on. A mad passion in them wanted wings.
This doesn’t mean you are any less. No, I mean that, hey, it’s ok if you decide to not study abroad. Amazing opportunities still wait ahead!
I am truly glad that even for a millisecond you thought that studying abroad is what you want. You dared to dream and in that moment you allowed yourself to live. It’s ok if it didn’t turn out to be the one for you.
A small reminder
Our doors are forever open for you. A small brass bell will ring for you as many times as you enter, as long as you enter. We will still look up at you and smile. If you miss one opportunity, thousands of them will await you on our shelves. The world is a big place; you deserve to take up more space in it.
Did you know?
Did you know that our programs are carefully handmade, individually crafted and personally customized? It is so because we believe that dreams can’t die young. These programs are made on hope and trust. These programs have wings.
And I wonder if you enter and the bell rings again, would you be sure of getting that one opportunity you stared at for a second too long.
With Love,
A small shop in a big town that leads to the world
