There are a lot of us out there who are doing what we are doing as an option. Having run short of effective ways to utilize this precious time of ours, we compromise on our hard imagined dreams and freedom and give in to the first thing that we come across.
You know when exactly does this happen when you are bored of having fun. when you are tried of facing the consequences of being too free all the time. when you run short of ideas to pass your time, after a point of time. this cycle goes on. you take a thing to keep you busy. get fed up. leave it. be free. get fed up of being free n so take on a new thing. it goes on.
But between all this confusion, there will come a day, a moment when it’ll finally finally hit you, that “yes! This is exactly what i wished I would have have done all my life n this is what that thing is that keeps me happy.”
and in that moment you will find a purpose to this life. 🙂
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” [Stanford commencement speech, June 2005]- Steve Jobs
