Is there a window where i can see the future? cause right now everything is uncertain. (from my friend's twitter stat)
at this point in my life, i know who i want to be but i don't know who i am.
“Everyday we ignore how completely broken this world is. And we tell ourselves it’s all gonna be okay, ‘You’re gonna be okay!’ but it’s not okay. And once you know that, there’s no going back. There’s no magic in the world. At least not today, there isn’t.”
I don't know how to explain myself further because all the posts above are the explanation of what I'm feeling right now. I'm even glad to know that I am not alone. My friends are also trying to find their own path. Some have already started, some are going back while some are like me confused and disappointed.
I admit, I am the girl who has many dreams. I even set goals for myself each and everyday. And when time gets tough, I am the one who'll say "It's okay. We will be fine." Until, one day everything came crashing down and you have to admit that you are not okay, you are lost and you can't see a brighter future (not yet).
I am lost and i don't know what to do. Everyone I know always say to me that I should not hurry, you're still young blah blah blah. In a fast paced world like this, how could they say "that I should just take my time?" That is one of the many questions I ask myself. No one has to answer it. I have to figure it out myself.
This post is really confusing... Yeah?! haha! Anyway, all I'm saying is... There's nothing wrong in admitting that you are lost and you do not know what to do with your life. Everybody experiences that certain stage. The lesson is learn to be back on track and start from Step 1 (dream again.)
I will turn 21 next week, yikes! so I need to be back on track again. :)

Lost at 20
“The hardest period in life is one’s 20s. It’s a shame because you’re your most gorgeous and you’re physically in peak condition. But it’s actually when you’re most insecure and full of self-doubt. When you don’t know what’s going to happen, it’s frightening.”

in a month time, i will soon depart the land of the 20somethings... and i will be 30. True indeed, your 20s is the the time of uncertainty, the time that mistakes are made, corrections done, lessons learned. i am not saying that there wont be any room for further learnings in the 30s and 40s and 50s because life is a constant change but, we get to experience everything around that time. I am about to be 30 and I still havent figured out who am I.. and worse, I still dont know what I wanna be.. I am just living by the moment...
ReplyDelete@Grace *woah* I'm speechless :/ Don't worry, we'll find our way. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you'll be twenty-one next week? Happy early Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteI think many people feel what you're feeling at one point or another in their lives. From what I've seen, all of our lives will be spent finding out who we want to be and what we want to do, because things are always changing. All I know is that I have so much I want to do with my life, and I don't ever want to give up on my dreams!! :)
Good luck to you, Kit!! <3
@Taylor, yep! I'll be turning 21 on the 26th! haha
ReplyDeleteThanks Taylooor!
:) Good luck to me and to us! Let's go chase our dreams! :)
I don't know that age really has anything to do with it. I know many 30 and 40 somethings who are still finding their way. One thing I've learned is that who I am, and what is important to me is an ever shifting thing. Learning to listen to what makes my heart sing helps me to find my footing. :) I discovered real peace when I stopped fighting (people, things, circumstances), and starting accepting. Then I was able to uncover my truth, follow my path, and really make a difference. :)
