No one really tells you what it's going to be like in your 20s. When you're in high school, you're counting down the days until you can move out and be on your own. Don't get be wrong I'm still counting down the days until that happens, but a part of me wants to wait as long as possible. Right now I have it good. I live at home with my parents and I'm still figuring out what to even do with my life. I pay minimal rent and I don't really have many expenses. I have a roof over my head and food in the fridge, but of course every young adult wants to be independent and on their own. I'm at that point where I don't want to listen to my parents but in the back of my mind I know they are right. All they keep saying is "go to school," "go to school," but school doesn't really feel like the right path for me to go down. I tried it and it didn't last long. It felt pointless to go and not know what I was wanting to major in. I still don't even know what I would want to major in. Once you graduate, everyone knows how hard it is to jump into the real world, especially with trying find what career path you're going to take and whatnot. All I want in life is to find a job that makes me happy, like actually happy. I want to be happy to wake up in the morning knowing that I'm doing something to help people. I know that's difficult to find these days but it shouldn't be too much to ask for, right? It's my life and I want to be able to choose the way I live it. I want to be happy and right now I just feel at a standstill. Do I go back to school or do I continue with my everyday life and try to find a better career? Everyday I question what I'm doing or what I should be doing. I just hope I find the guidance I need. I know I cant be the only one going through this. I feel like everyone at least once in their 20s questions what their doing in life. I hope that anyone reading this knows that you're not alone in your struggles. Almost everyone struggles some way or another. Sometimes I just got to remind myself to take my own advice and try to live every day to the best of my ability.
