What if i told you that you arent supposed to be anything?
You aren’t supposed to grow up and move away to a place and marry a person. You aren’t supposed to find a career that you love. You aren’t supposed to be a doctor, or an engineer or a garbage man or a husband or a failure or a success. You aren’t supposed to find someone who loves you. You aren’t supposed to be lonely forever. You aren’t supposed to be a christian or a Muslim or an Buddhist. You dont have to be anyone or anything in particular.
What is the idea that you hold about yourself? What do you think you are supposed to go on to do? Who do you think you have to be, or keep being? Where have all of these ideas come from? Were you not young once without a care in the world for who you were or what you would go on to do. It was tuesday, and you had a bike. That was enough then, and it still is now if we can learn to let go of our rusty old unreasonable self expectation.
What if i told you that all of this is what has stolen the joy of your youth. Expect nothing from yourself, expect nothing from the day. Look through your eyes. Find what you like. Chase it.
Dont be scared to change yourself or your path, you aren’t meant for anything. The beauty in that is you always get to choose what your heart wants to grab. You have the power to choose. Powerful stuff.
There is value in stability and holding onto a good thing, and there is also danger in the thought “ i was supposed to”I needed this~
