have you ever feel like you are losing yourself, like you don't know where to go, what you want to do, and have no idea about your future?
Well I did.
In fact, for a several times.
I always think life is just a journey, the decisions we take are the turns along our way.
We all have destinations for this journey, our own dreams, our goals, or our own life purposes, you name it. Some decisions will make us closer to our goal, and some will make us further from it. But truth be told, most of the times, we don't know which one is which.
Same as a normal journey, sometimes we also get lost in life. We are just too confused to move on. We have no idea whether we have to keep going, turn left, turn right, make a u turn, or just to stay where we are. This confusion only gets worse when we know (or we assume that) we are lost, we start to panic and overthink everything.
Most of the people will start to ask people around when they are lost. Hoping the people they meet on their way know the right direction to go.
Chances are :
A. If they are lucky, they meet those people who know exactly where to go and give them a good guidance.
B. Or they can meet those people who don't know the direction but being honest and telling them that they don't know.
C. Worst case, if they are unlucky, there are always some people who don't know the direction, but telling guidance like they know everything.
Life is also like that.
When you ask people around you, what to do in your life, you can get either A, B, or C.
And obviously, you can't tell the difference between A, B, or C until you actually go to that direction and see the result for yourself.
Unfortunately, in this journey of life, nobody actually knows for sure which direction to go to reach your goal. Unlike a normal journey, there is no map to reach your goal. Simply because the journey has never been done, not by you, not by anyone else.
So the odds to get A is nearly ZERO.
And now you are probably wondering what is my point.
The point is, don't listen to anybody for the important decisions in your life!
You can ask around for opinion, but always believe in yourself. The choices are yours!!
You are the one living with the consequences, not them!!
If, by any chances, you feel like you are losing yourself, the best thing to do is just to stop for a while, and enjoy the scenery while it lasts.
Most of the time, you are not actually lost, you are in the right track but just unsure that you are. And to make things sound better, our destination seems to change a lot during our journey. :)
Last but not least, whether you are lost or not, since it is a journey, it is always nice to have a good company. =)
And lucky for me, I've got the best company in this chapter of life! =D
I call her "tacan".
