Part of the experience of growing up and moving into new chapters of your life, is the whole idea of making your peace with the inevitable. What I mean by the inevitable is that, making peace with the fact that in your life you will inevitably- trust the wrong person, hurt the people who didn’t deserve it, not give the right reaction at the right time, feel guilty, think that the world revolves around your experiences, not know the right thing to say, and the list goes on.
Growing up comes with this sort of unwritten contract that you will not know what the right choice to make is, or what the right thing to say is, all the time, and that’s okay. You have to do what’s right for you at that moment, whatever feels right for the life you want to live, the vision that aligns and the thing that comes naturally in your brain.
And you will screw it up sometimes, and that’s okay as well, because a big chunk of living your life is actually living it, getting the experience be it good or bad, which leads to wisdom in the future that you will one day pass on.
My point is, you have to learn to live along side the idea of “it’s not that deep”, which means that life isn’t serious all the time, and we make by thinking too deep into every little detail. One wrong text, One fight, One bad semester, or even one bad relationship isn’t the end of the world even though it feels like that at the moment.
But I’m not advocating the idea of completely ignoring these feelings, I’m saying that it’s all part of growing up and moving into new chapters in the book of your life. So we will let these feelings sink in, sink deeper into the processing unit of your brain, cry it out if you need to, and come back stronger.
And the fun part of not thinking too deep into every single thing except for the things that do matter, and sort of living in the moment and not have a binoculars to your eyes all the time, is that when life finally does take place you actually get to be surprised.
