The 20s' Dilemma


"If you aren't happy where you are, change it!" - Easier said than done!

Yeah we all make some wrong decisions in life at times and so have I. I know where I am right now is not the place I wanted to be and I want to change it but sometimes the cost of it is what pulls me back. Two things that affect me adversely and stop me from bringing an absolutely new change in life-
1) The resources my family has put in to make me reach where I am today, it's all gonna go down the river. Not that they would ever complain about it.
2) No matter how much I deny it, for some reason we are all consumed with the opinions of others. Honestly, they are gonna make a great deal out of it and haunt my parents with the traumatizing questions.

I always believed in the policy that make a lot of wrong decisions in your 20s. Experiment with life. There is a unique freedom that is associated with living in your 20s. Typically, you do not have your lifelong career path set out for you, so try and dabble in different areas until you find your niche. Because what you do in your 20s will ultimately frame your future and to live with no regrets later follow your heart in this decade and land up where and with what you are passionate about.

Going by what I personally believe in, I am ready to take a twist and turn my life-story around. But what I am not sure of is What the hell am I gonna do anyway? If not this than what? I know my passions but I am always distracted half-way when reaching for them. WHY? Maybe the day I have an answer to this will be the day I bring about this change. Until then let's end up with an optimistic quote I read somewhere and it got stuck in my head since then "A calm settled life is far in the future, so now is the time to be selfish and do things for yourself."
