What is life without a million possibilities knocking at your front door? It's not. It's just like the life of a plant. One aim, photosynthesis, one routine everyday, pollinate, make fruit, and repeat. For us complicated creatures with a design unlike any other,
''What do you want to be when you grow up?''
A simple question like this has no straightforward answer.
Some people have a set dream of making it big in a certain business, or writing a novel or simply managing the family business, which isn't half bad.
But for people like me, who actually have too many talents/skills in their hands and just flow with the course of life and see where the wind takes us, this question can never actually have a definite answer until all our doors are shut and there's only one path left to pick and we willingly tread on it for a hopeful future that maybe this is my schtick. This is bound to work.
But will it?
Life starts at a blank canvas. The colours are identified through primary socialization, i.e. interaction with family in our early years and the colours being the rights and the wrongs that we are conditioned into before we enter academic life (school) and that is where the actual painting action happens. Or as I fancy to call,
''The trial and error phase.''
There is nothing more exciting than being in your teens and just growing in your shoes, being free to express yourself because it's universally accepted that you have not yet evolved to your true and final form as of yet, you are still forming opinions on things and you are still learning. Not to say that people in their 20's or 30's aren't. Everyone learns something new every day. Whether it is information or a reactionary emotion that's yet to be discovered because as I have aforementioned, life has a million possibilities. It's up to us to pick up the pen and write our story.
