The Thrill Of Not Knowing

The Thrill Of Not Knowing

You know how you feel when you look around and see others of your own age actually accomplishing things in life and having detailed plans of where they wanna be a few years down the road, it feels as if you are not doing enough. I used to think that maybe I’m wasting my life because currently there’s nothing going on (due to the COVID situation obviously), and the uncertainty of what I wanna do in future used to give me all kinds of anxiety but now I’ve realised, it’s okay not knowing. The uncertainty, is not so bad because I might not have my future planned out but at least I have this element of surprise. I know that it’s a cliché but it’s true, no one knows what tomorrow holds and there’s a high chance things might not even go the same way as we plan them but that’s life, full of surprising twists and turns.
