"Everything will be okay in the end... if it's not okay, it's not the end."
I really hope that this is the case.. Lately (the past 5 years of my life), I have been filled with growing doubts that I have what it takes to achieve and accomplish what should already be achieved and accomplished by now. In an era where youth eagerly await the privilege to drive, starting the process around the age of sixteen, I still do not have my license. At an age where most of my peers have successfully finished their grueling university terms, some content with an undergraduate degree, while others have persevered in graduate studies, I am still trapped at the halfway mark.
Why is it that I do not even have the courage to acknowledge my situation? to accept and attempt to improve past failures?
I constantly tell myself that life is about making mistakes.. about enjoying the journey as opposed to racing to the end.. that I can stand and be proud of myself as long as I do not do anything that I will be ashamed or embarrassed about.. but.. I'm finding it really tough right now. Now, I agree with others when they ridicule and kick me down.. I'm losing sight of the person that I could be proud of.. that girl who loved life and tried to live it to the fullest.
Will it all really be okay..? Will things fall into place someday..?
I'm not sure how much more I can handle. I want to believe in myself and fight to the end but I've lost all my strength. Am I really this weak?
