Maturity

Nov 25, 2012 19:10

It's the one thing I'm always proud of myself and now I'm being described as someone who is two years lagging behind as compared to my peers. No doubt I'm not as street smart as my peers, simply because I never have the trouble to live being poor or having to trouble for my next meal. I'm very much covered for life by my parents. I'm so well pampered, I'm taking it for granted.

Telling my brother-in-law my future plans helps me a little in setting my goals straight and working towards them. Taking freelance job is the first step to stepping out of my comfort zone and I need to sustain that kind of effort. Depression should not be an excuse for me to avoid work or social contacts just because i'm afraid that I might succumb to fear again. I need to stand strong and have my own stand and face the challenges ahead.

Life is not just about things that don't get your way, but it's about living up to your existence. Everyone lives and works hard because this is their life. I have not felt 'alive' simply because I have everything in reach and at hand.

I will start living for myself from now on.
Live for my existence, live for my future, live for my happiness.
I can and should no longer live under the shelter of my parents' hardworks and start moving on with my own life.
Because this is my life, and this is how I need to live with it.
Not getting comfortable with life, to the point that I don't get sociable,
but being out there and reaching out to more people so that I can understand the true meaning of life.
