Fresh Perspective

Heart to Heart

Time to talk. We all know school to be the entirety of our lives up until the day it ends. From the very first time we can remember clearly until the day we graduate with whatever diploma or degree we receive. We walked the halls, sat in the old plastic seats, and regurgitated information fed to us. We know the routine. Get up, go to class, take notes, study, go to bed. Sleep. Repeat. But.. when we graduate, that next year is the year where we're just trying to figure everything out. Whether we are starting a new job or venturing out and traveling, we are trying to understand who we truly are and who we want to become. It's totally normal to freak out, trust me, I have been there and so have all of my friends.

Flashing forward a year after graduating with my BA degree, I have worked 4 different jobs. I absolutely hated 1, became bored with the other 2, and a year later, finally fell in love with the 3rd. It's been a journey and I had to trek some very different paths to finally get my shit together and figure out who I am, what I am interested in, and quite possibly, where I belong.

To be completely honest, I am still trying to figure it all out. How I feel about where I am right now might all change tomorrow. Nothing is ever certain, and that's what keeps us on our toes. We might discover a new found love for something and decide to make a complete 360. Who knows?

So why I am posting this today? Babbling on about life and school etc. Well, I am trying this new thing where I have made the decision to take my life and turn it upside down. Look at it from a completely different perspective and turning "what ifs" into reality. If anyone reading this feels as though they would like to join me on this journey to figuring out who you are and what you want most in life, keep reading my posts. If you don't and you have had enough of this bull, or you have already figured out what you want then good for you for being able to make a decision.

Hopefully my journey to finding myself and living in the moment will help you in some way. I will try to be less corny in the future, but no promises...
