Have you ever felt lost in life? As if you were stuck in the same spot with nowhere left to go? It’s possibly the worst feeling in the world. If you are anything like me then your head must be filled with all these adventures you have yet to take. Dreams that have yet to be seen true. One day, I tell myself, over and over to make myself believe that indeed one day I will be able to set out into the world and have my fill of it.

One day. One more ever precious day till adventure. But recently I have been starting to question this notion. Why say one day when you could say today? Why must I wait for adventure? Or rather, why do I keep myself anchored to this dull life I find myself to be in? It scares me to admit that I just don’t know the answer. That maybe society tells us all we should go to college and get married while we could be out there actually living instead. Like maybe I’m holding myself back with excuses out of fear instilled in me by others, about how unsafe it all seems, but is anywhere ever truly safe? Life is what you make it to be, so why are we so willing to let others mold it for us.

I think it’s time we took matters into our own hands and go live the lives we were always meant to live. Each day is a gift, so let’s not waste it on hoping the next day will be the day our lives begin. Today is the day, and so is every day to come. So what’s stopping you? Adventure is just around the corner, waiting for you to grab on to it. So please do yourself a favor and grab onto it, and live. Just live.
