MONDAY MORNING MUSINGS / DON'T WORRY

[Source]

Have you ever felt like you are the only one who doesn't have a clue what to do with your life? It might seem like all of the people are successful in what they do, they are trying to achieve a specific goal, they own a house, a car or are going to get married. This feeling has been my friend (or more like an enemy) for years and years. Sometimes it creeps up on me in the darkest hour of the night and keeps me up all night with my mind wandering around and not letting my eyes shut. Sometimes I get this thought in the middle of the conversation with someone who has things figured out, or at least seems like it. And it's so easy to start to look down on yourself when you are not somewhere you've expected to be some time ago. To start doubting yourself and comparing yourself with others who, seemingly, have everything figured out.
I'm very happy I found this quote just in time when these annoying thoughts were trying to make their way into my mind. I have to admit, sometimes I don't really feel very sure of myself and what the hell am I doing with my life. I'm 21 and I don't have a job, a boyfriend, I still live with my parents, I'm studying for a degree which doesn't really make my future secure, maybe completely contrary and when I start to think about it, I become terrified. I have so many plans in my mind, so many hopes and wishes and no ideas how to reach all of them, if I'm honest. But then again I come back to the earth and I realize that I am not alone, that there are millions of people feeling exactly like I do and if someone has everything figured out in their life, good for them, really, well done and for the rest of us who are still trying to make up their mind about what to do in this world, I guess, we have to keep on trying and being just a little bit kinder with ourselves. Because it's okay to not have it all figured out, it's okay to search and try and try again and one day, I hope, things will start to fall into place a little more. Have a great Monday!
