Expectation shines in her eyes as she stands in her crisp white shirt and blue tie, bag slung over her shoulder, ready to start a new chapter. The world feels full of possibilities—nervous but excited, she imagines what’s waiting beyond those gates: friendships, challenges, maybe even adventures she hasn’t dreamed yet. Every step is a promise to herself to keep hoping, to work hard, and to believe that something good is on the way.
Do you remember a moment when expectation felt this real and bright?
