If your looking at your life and wondering if your taking as much advantage of it as another person would, I have to ask, who is living your life?
Everyone lives their lives for different reasons. Some to be better than thier parents, others in search of someone/someplace to love and call home, and there are those that seemingly dont "do much" with their life at all.
You bring up our friend at Penn, well I bring up Sam at UTPA, or Savi up near houston, or anyone else you can name that seems to be striving for something.
Then I will bring up me.
Currently I am studying to be a computer engineer. This wasnt my dream, nor do I feel it is my calling. I want a decent paying job for a few reasons. I want to be able to:
Support a family I might have in the future Travel around the world when I feel like it Pay for my video games / computer upgrades throughout my life Eat, sleep, and crap to my hearts content.
What I wanted was always creeping through my head a while back. Always worrying about whether or not I was letting too much pass me by, whether I was doing good enough, etc...
Hell I might even say I kept swapping my decision to stay with Sam back and forth so much simply because I felt like I wasnt trying hard enough, or I wasnt doing my best...
After all of that... I just decided to do what I wanted to do, what I felt like doing. At the moment I feel like just passing my classes, spending time with my friends and girlfriend, playing video games, and eating.
To me, it sounds like you are unsure of what you are doing or want to do in your life. If I am wrong, then you certainly dont sound happy doing what your doing...
Took me a while to figure it out... I actually sat down and wrote down everything I was angry at, sad about, liked, wanted. In the end I just figured I am who I am and that while someone COULD be doing better than me, if it makes them happy then they can go ahead and I will cheer for them. I will congratulate them for all their accomplishments, and if they are friends/family... be there whenever they need support.
But I will do what makes me happy, even if that is just play videogames.
Making responsible decisions about my future does take place, but I hardly take life as serious as other people. Do what I have to do, enjoy what I love, and be there for the people who need it.
Hope this helped somewhat, and correct me on anything you disagree with.
