Growing up, everyone around me seemed to plan ahead. Not me. I would play it by ear and let the waves roll. I never had my future wedding planned or my future children's names picked out. Even now, I still don't.

I don't have my life fully planned and that's completely OK. If I have a set idea about how I want my life to be when I'm older, it'll only lead to disappointment.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking those who have their lives planned at an early age. I hope you all achieve what you choose to pursue. I'm just saying that I don't know what exactly I want to do with my degree. I don't know what state I want to live in. I don't know many kids I want (if any).

"How do you not know what you're doing with your life? You're in college."

Yes, I am in college. That means that I'm still young and that I don't need to create a particular lifestyle. What if I switch majors? What if I drop out? Win the lottery? Then what? My plan would be foiled. I'm always changing as a person. A year ago, if you asked me what I wanted my life to be like, the answer would be completely different from the answer I would give if I were asked now.

Sometimes I get a little scared about the future. What if the fact that I don't have a plan completely screws me over? What if it's too late by then? A million questions come to mind. But, regardless, I just have to sit back, relax, and let life take its course. Anything that's supposed to happen will happen.

Life is not supposed to be planned step-by-step. You would be stressed all the time if you tried to make the impossible happen. Enjoy the roller coaster called life.
