Allow me to open by saying that I’m at another crossroads of sorts. An interesting moment it seems, as to be aware of where I am -or so I think- and where I may be approaching. Again, allow me to reiterate, these are just my inner observations, and as such subject to distortion. Nonetheless, I am approaching graduation which raises the question, “Am I ready?” Now, obviously, this question applies to a wide variety of aspects. All of which are characterised by the transition from home-life into the real world.
…and you know what? I don’t feel ready. I don’t feel that the world will accept me. I don’t feel that I will have a place in the world. I don’t feel that I will get anywhere in the world. This is the awakening that I may have been subconsciously delaying all of these years, but now it presents itself, and I have no clue what to do.
I am coming upon a time in my life in which I will have to face the real world, and in a sense, face reality. I know the real world won’t wait for me, and with this is carried the idea that I need to learn. I need to keep up, or drown. The thing that scares me is I feel that I won’t be able to keep up, and that I won’t get into university, and that I won’t get anywhere.
It is sort of a daunting thought really. I certainly don’t feel prepared.
I’m not ready for this. I’m not ready for life. I don’t know what to do. It’s overwhelming.
