“You must give up the life you had planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you.” - Joseph Campbell
Right now, I should be in my bed, under my covers, and long past gone away to dreamland but instead, I'm quoting this. I heard Ian Harding aka Ezra Fitz quote this while I'm watching PLL Season 2, and it comes striking through my head like this is the most sane thing that I heard through my struggle over the past few years. It actually gave me new perspective to some things -or light if some may call it- and an epiphany at the same time.
So, as I was in my bed, thinking of it, some questions poped out. Am I willing to give up of what I had planned? of what I dreamed my life would be? of what I expected I could be? Definitely a big NO, because that plan I had in my head, is what I actually live for. So just how I could give that up?
Right then, some part of me are already processing some answers and my thoughts come up of what I think is a pretty reasonable one. Giving up the thought of the greatest plan of your life aint easy, but at some circumstances and unfortunate events and some universal force will make you say bye-bye for that plans. Hard because of the fact of not achieving what you desire and what you expected, but hey, everything happens for a reason. Plus we might not know what could be there waiting for us, but that was actually the downside, the we-dont-know part. It's like, looking for things in a pitch black room. I dont like taking risks myself and the-so-many-what-ifs. Uhh. *Now my mind is in a constant battle and in the midst of confusion. I always tend to confuse myself with my self-provoking thoughts that I really really hate and which keeps my mind wide awake and working and functioning like a mad dog at night.
Though one plan I'm seriously not gonna give up is me being an Architect, I might change the plan of how I will be there, how I will go to the top and achieve that but that one thing is for sure.
