Life is complicated

Open a dictionary and look for the word, change. What do you see? Well when I looked I found this: 

-verb (used with object)

1. to make the form, nature content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone: to change one's name; to change one's opinion; to change the course of history.

In life we experience a lot of change right? A kid grows into a teenager. That teenager grows into a young adult. The young adult becomes a mature adult. A mature adult grows into a senior, and then eventually we all face the inevitable end of life, death. Our lives though are our own to live. We will experience different things, make different choices with what to do with our lives, and make different changes in our life. 

We all live our own path. Our paths though, are similar in some ways. There are somethings in the course of our lives that are inevitable. These things include: things change no matter how much you don't want them to; you will meet new people; experience new things you will like; and we all leave this world with death. As I said we all have a path, you just need to decide what is your path. Do not let other people decide your path for you. 

Let's say you have a career choice that you didn't choose, a career choice your parents decided. If you do not enjoy it I say go back and do something you do enjoy! Don't go on your path of life regretting every moment of it. We all only get one chance at life, you might as well take that chance and do what you want. 

Your life isn't where you want it to be? Change the things in your life that make you unhappy and sad. Change the things that you don't enjoy. Life is to short to be unhappy and miserable for its entirety. Hate that desk job of yours? What about that annoying coworker you can't stand? Talk to someone, make some changes, and try new things you normally wouldn't. 

By trying new things you might experience something you thought you hated, but in fact you actually love. Tried it before? Well hey your perspectives change, your views change, so go ahead and try it again. You might like it the second time? Trying something new, experiencing different things is one of the unmentioned inevitable things about life. You just never know . . . you might be missing out on something great. 

Now what am I trying to get at with all of this? Well basically life is complicated. You never know what to do, you are miserable, happy, sad, depressed, ecstatic, tired, excited, and all those emotions. What you need to do, NO all you have to do in life is to follow your heart, and that will always lead you in the right direction. If you follow what your heart tells you, your path in the end will be full of memories that made you path, your journey, worth while.
