Thoughts spiraling: Education, jobs, love, & loss. Just a couple months left until I’m out in the ‘real world.’ The unhinged thoughts drain me. Should I follow the rules to get ahead or play by my own to be happy? Travel the world living on a few dollars enjoying what I truly love or be comfortable in business from the same place I’ve always been in?
I don’t want to follow the crowd; I want to be successful in my own way, not what society deems to be as successful. Money is meaningless if you don’t have a purpose for the money other than materialism.
I don’t know how to get to that place. I don’t know how to get to a place where I don’t get tied down to a person or place, where I don’t need a highfalutin education to be someone that I don’t want to be other than wealthy or financially comfortable. Nothing in this society is ever enough & no one is ever happy with what they are given. I don’t want this for myself & I don’t want this for the future generations that come after me.
In the minuscule amount of years that I have lived, I have learned to educate myself through experiences I have gained, become wiser in the mistakes that I have made, & the challenges I have faced, & I try to not dwell on them & move on. I have learned to become stronger from the people I have met that have lifted me up & that have pulled me down. I have learned to never change my beliefs for someone else & to always know that I have control of my own destiny.
What I have learned & what I will continue to learn is to be myself, follow what I want, & I will get to where I need to be in the end. Bliss.
Until next time... ciao 💗
