I never liked thinking about the future because I never thought I’d make it this long. And suddenly I’m here, alive, and a junior in college and yet I barely know what I want to do with my life. Everyone else seems to have it together and I’m just here

I promise you’ll figure it out :) I was in that exact spot after I graduated. Tbh I still don’t know exactly what I want to do for the rest of my life, but the beauty of that is that you don’t have to pick one thing and stick with it forever. You have so much time left, now you can make the most of it instead of having a sort of deadline for everything. Personally, I want to work a bunch of different jobs I’m interested in just to get the experience and say I did it

I think that’s some of the beauty and weirdness to life. Like, you can’t tell me Tony hawk woke up one day and was like I’m gonna be the greatest skateboarder of all time. He figured it out along the way. Same with my friend who lost her husband at 26, they had all these crazy grand plans and then life throws a wrench in things. That’s not to say don’t plan it if you’re able, but just go with the flow; take some effort to actively shape your future.

but the good thing is that your journey is completely separate from everyone else's, societal standards on how people should live their lives are bullshit and we all have free will!
