idk me anymore

everybody has an inner view of themselves, right??? what we think of ourselves, what we want, what we feel we need. we have a good idea of who we are and where we stand in life. And until reccently i liked who i thought i was. but the other day i realized i just didnt know anymore. Evertything i thought i wanted from life, all my hopes and all my dreams i realized they werent mine. it has all been influenced by other people. i thought i wanted to go through school, get scholarships, go to college, work for CSI, make good money, retire and then die. thats it, thats all i wanted from "life". but now i realize that i dont want any of that. i dont care about high school or college or a job. i dont want the money or the nice house, because really it isn't worth any of the work. you just end up living a boring life and then you die??? whats the point of that??? i wanna travel, i wanna see the world. i wanna be somebody and do something for this wonderous planet. i dont wanna come home from a rough day at work to sit on the couch and watch the nature channel. i wanna see it in real life. i wanna see all that is out there before i die. i want to actually live!!! Cuz we only get this one life, and if you screw it up, theres no re-do's. life aint no etch-a-sketch, its a doodle that cant be undone.

This is a common theme in today's society . Understand that you are not alone and there are others who have experienced these same feelings. It seems almost trivial, life. What we are supposed to achieve, accomplished. Told by others that we are less because we don't follow the cookie cutter outline layed out by society. be a rouge, do what you want. You may hear it a lot but at the end of the day you control your life. No matter what the stage of your life is. You have control over how you react to a situation even if you don't have control over the situation dictates your happiness in life.

good job i like your writing don't stop. if you want advice from someone who has been through a lot as well... writing helps a lot.
