Trying to fit in as a 22 yr old |
| Sometimes life can be unexpected, it can take huge turns but often leaves you full of doubts - Sometimes with hope and sometimes with regret. I always used to believe my life would be amazing, filled adventures and fun – maybe it was just a dream which I couldn’t fulfill. I am just 22 years old and this is my story. It’s funny how when I talk to older people, makes me realize how young I really am. Being in your twenties can be tricky they say. Trying to figure out where you fit and feeling lost with no path ahead – stuck. “Hope” is a very interesting feeling, it has the power of keeping you alive and also to make you feel like giving up. What if I’m not in the right place?? You can’t have an answer to that until you’ve lived. Maybe you have to start here to reach where you’re meant to be. Going with the flow I say, opening your wings and letting the wind take you where you belong, maybe life wants me to make mistakes. Maybe it just wants me to live. And maybe it isn’t about making mistakes, but learning to accept it without letting it define me. If I could laugh at my own chaos, maybe life wouldn’t feel so heavy. Pushing your loved ones away thinking they might hurt you. Well, sometimes they do – sometimes your friends leave you to be with someone better, sometimes you don’t feel welcomed or maybe you just don’t fit in. Did you ever think that somehow, it’s not your mistake?? That you are not the one who is broken? Maybe your just too deep for the others. Meeting new people – making new friends is where you’ll find your answers. It will take time to heal and accept the past but remember you are the one who is writing this story today and maybe someday your gonna write the ending as well. This is just the beginning….. |
