And things change…

Life goes on, people come and go and we carry on. What a sad reality this is. Young people the world over face some of the most difficult choices of their lives in the span of a few months. No pressure or anything. Most of us know and accept that moving on means saying goodbye, and we’re okay with that because it’s part of life. But as time makes it’s slow advance you start to look around and take stock of all the things in your life. You stop and consider the people you know then you realize that maybe you’ll never see some of them again. People tell you that you need to get out and see the world, to be on your own and experience what life is really like. Maybe people are wrong. Life isn’t a predetermined set of hard truths and harsh realities, life is what we make it out to be. In the end the things that matter are the people and places you care about the most, and you know what, maybe you’ve already found them. Yes, you should get out of your town and see places and meet people, but that doesn’t mean it has to be forever. The “real world” isn’t some magical place where everything gets better and people become nicer and colours look brighter, it’s the exact same, it just a lot more problems. So if you’ve already found what makes you happy then fight for it because in the end it’s all that matters. And those people who tell you otherwise? They work 9-5 seven days a week, hate their job, and just maxed-out their second credit card, so what do they really know about life.
