Shower Thoughts

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift. 

Life is a crazy thing. You live each day going through the motions, getting things done that need to be done. Maybe you're in school and you wake up each day to spend it in a chair, not really knowing what life is really about outside of the classroom. Maybe you work and are looking forward to doing great things with all of the money you work so hard for. 

It is weird to think about life. What am I working for, what do I want to make out of my life, why am I here? After all, we only get one... as far as we know.

For me, this is something that I think about often. I have gone to school my whole life, waiting for that one day that I am finally done and get to do what I've always wanted to do. Except now that I am almost done I feel more confused than ever. I've been in the routine of waking up, going to school, doing homework, studying for tests, going to bed. And repeat. So now what? I don't think this is something that I will magically figure out one day. I think everything happens for a reason and I will end up doing exactly what I am supposed to be doing without even knowing it.

I definitely have goals that I want to achieve in life, but I wish it was easier to really live, to see the world, to experience all types of culture and life. 

Maybe I'm just too young to know what my sole purpose in life is. Maybe when I am older and more knowledgeable I will find my purpose, but for now I will keep searching and doing the things I love with the people I love. These are the things I think about in the shower, or when I'm trying to go to bed before a long day :) 

It is important to love, laugh and learn. Be kind to those around you, even when you don't want to. Add 'live life to the fullest' to your to do list everyday and maybe that will make the routine easier :)


What are some of your goals in life? What do you think your purpose is?

much love,
