Decisions, decisions, choices, doors, opportunities, windows, knock, think, think, unknown, tunnel, future.
I've been thinking about my future recently and how does anyone ever know what you want to pursue as a degree/career? Does a ray of light beam down to show them the way when they are looking for universities online, do they get dreams about their future that enlightens them on the way, is there a textbook on your own life that somehow I am missing and so missing out on 'how to make your life go the way you want' chapter?
When I was in secondary sch, they said enjoy your youth.
When I got into poly, they said enjoy being a student.
Now in a blink of an eye, they pull you out and say, okay grow up you have burdens and responsibilities of the world to shoulder. make some money and make your parents proud.
I want to do what I love everyday, making nonsense videos and photoshopping and whistling all the way home but I guess that's selfish of me because it won't get me good money to give the people I love a better life.
Money and greed is evil. If it were like a vampire, I would want to slay it like Buffy would. Y'know, I sometimes have the random urge to take 100 bucks and run to Utah and grow oranges in a farm house and chop wood for fire every night and sing camp fire songs. Just sometimes.
People are more afraid of the unknown then they are of bad choices.
I'm no different. I play all the 'what-ifs' in my head and get drowned in the uncertainty.
We all get that sometimes.
It's times like these that I choose to pray even more. For guidance and wisdom and for just the peace in my heart. Knowing that God is in control of it all. This bible verse always encourages me when I feel like this and I hope it encourages you too.
"For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."Jeremiah 29:11
