Most of us trot in
this world without a faint idea of where to go and what to do next.
Some of us are okay
with that, and some of us aren’t.
We get into all these
different things, meet different people, and get our hearts broken. And it
cripples us, having to be pushed too far and having to settle for what we don’t
deserve. It tires us, having to keep hoping, and having to regain strength and
resilience to make mistakes, just to be disappointed over and over again.
But some of us have reached
a point where we’re finally sure of something. And we’ve suddenly never been
happier.
We’ve taken the
initiative to find happiness instead of waiting for it. We’ve stopped doubting ourselves
and started taking risks. We knew it wouldn’t be easy, but we kept going,
knowing that continuously falling flat on our faces would eventually make us
better people, those who are more prepared to face the world we still find
beautiful, no matter what damage it has caused us.
It may have cost us a
lot of things: leaving the people we once were, changing our ideals, and maybe
even our passions or what we found most fulfilling. We may have let go of the
things that used to matter and even the people we once loved.
But through all the gambles
and stumbles, we’ve grown and become brave enough to venture into what we were
once afraid of. We finally found what we’ve been looking for.
It’s thrilling to
know that although many doubts remain and many dangerous adventures are out
there for us to explore, at least at this point in our lives, we’re lucky
enough to know that we’re where we want to be.
