I turned 23 this weekend and although I am completely aware that I am still very young I couldn’t help but somewhat reflect on where I am, my progress, my goals, etc. I have been very blessed in having a deep understanding of my direction from a very young age. I have always known what would bring me the most happiness and have never faltered in what I need and want. But what happens when those two things differ, if I have what I want but not what I need?
I know in the end need will have to win. But at what point? I have been struggling with this concept for some time now and I am torn. I have what I want and thus am quite content most of the time. Until of course, reality creeps into my otherwise happy thoughts and reminds me that substance is missing. The reality is not there. And as a result there is no security or longevity, no safety. I guess it comes full circle because it is those things that I want as well as what I need. Perhaps once the smoke clears I have neither.
I just have me.
