Aren't we suppose to live life the way we wanted to?
Aren't we suppose to be happy with the choices we make?
Aren't we suppose to learn from our mistakes?
Then why do we think to much about what other people say? About what other people see us? About how they wanted us to live this life?
Aren't we suppose to do this and that, fall and stand up? Pick up our own pieces and try again. This life is too short for us to think too much before diving into the pit of our desires. There's not much time for us to look around, weigh the pros and cons while trying to catch a sound from the whispers and murmurs of those people around us.
We don't have much time but still we waste it on those nonesense. We try and examine ourselves in front of the mirror everyday. Asking the same set of questions and feeling emotions we do not want to feel.
Are we suppose to base our footings to their's?
No.
Are we suppose to listen to all the chattering?
No.
Are we supposed to look at ourselves and question our worth just because they think you aren't good enough?
No.
Are we suppose to feel guilty just because they looked at our eyes with judgement for not doing something they felt we need to do?
... No.
Your life is your life. Try and make choices for your own sake. When you choose the wrong door, then reprimand yourself and try again.
You are your only critic and the best way to be better is listening to what your heart and what your mind is telling you.
It might whisper the tough roads and detours but at leasr, even when you fall in the end...you can still pick up yourself and blame no one.
... Because you should not blame yourself. Thats not how things work.
Just be honest and rational. Are you happy? If yes, then go on and dive. If no, then maybe it's time to rethink the plan.
This is your own story. Don't let it come to an end just because of what other people think. Decide on your own and what ever happens, it will be a happy ending nonetheless.
