On being 20....

Been a long time since i took some time out for myself.... i need my space sometimes... i need to just be... need to think about my future...try and focus...think about a purpose... look into my past few days...and jus ponder...reflect..and let go...

I indulged in some introspection this morning... and realised how different it feels to be 20...Its like 'm caught between 2 worlds... one that is more inviting than the other.... being young...daring... fun... living every micro second... has its own fun... has the independence...has the freedom... and then there is the sdult world...contantly being on guard...not expressing everything you feel like..thinking a hundred times before trusting someone...having second thoughts about your actions... being professional everywhere...

I'm just starting to learn to survive in the second one....and missing the first terribly....but then i realise that every minute is a life changing experience... and i am going to learn to love every bit of it!

its the same dilemma that all of us are caught in.... i seem to be swimming in the "first" situation more often than not!

its nice, that you're getting used to the adult one... its not a very pretty one, but nevertheless... :(

yeah adult life is kinda weird...and what with life pulling us all in diff directions,you almost feel like what the heck is goin on...but all we can do i guess is to go with the flow and be our best everyday...u're doing precisely that....keep at it :-)
