Desire

I’ve been pretty troubled lately. I kept thinking about one main thing. In general it’s explained in just one word, and the word is the topic of this post, desire. It’s not that I have too many desire I can’t get but instead it’s I start to lose track of what I actually desire. What is it that I actually want? What do I want to achieve, what do I want to get? I actually lost track of it.

I’ve been thinking a lot on what is it that I want to achieve in this school because I’ve been thinking too much about my future. Recently I realized, I don’t actually know what exactly I want to achieve. I’ve changed my plan for the future many times in these few years. I grew true every experience and every experience actually opened up a different view for me. The new view actually make me realized what I chose every time was wrong including this time.

To plan for your future is definitely a good thing. It’s a very advisable act among the secondary students but even though you seem to have decided, sit down and think. Is it really what you want, could it really work the way you want it to, what if it doesn’t go as you want it to. These are all considerations you should make before truly setting it as an aim. I missed these steps myself and now here I am confused after being seemingly confident with my future.


It's great to plan but plan with utter consideration


This blog will have a big makeover soon. Stay tuned for a new phase of the blog. As the current title of the blog says, 17- the age of change it’s time for the blog to go through a change.

Well... it's not possible to plan every step of your way to the future. Keep reminding yourself of the TRUE essence of what you really want to achieve in life and choose your path towards it... but the thing about life is you never get it your way all the time. It's full of surprises and that's the wonder of life. Are you going to regret if you've chosen a wrong path? Don't be too rigid. Don't be too stubborn. The word is adaptation. Nothing is constant in the world except change. Embrace what comes your way and make the best out of it. Sometimes, live a day at a time... without regrets. Don't stray too much to the future... you'll lose track of what's important in front of you.

Another thing about achieving goals is that... because of the nature of everyone's goal is different, you don't achieve something like a in fairy tale. You are bound to sacrifice something along the way... something really important sometimes... and when you're there, it might not be as fun as you think. Again, just remember what's TRUE to you... make sure you don't sacrifice the wrong things. Enjoy the process of getting there. Life's a journey, not a destination. Don't try to figure out the meaning of life. Life itself is the meaning.
