[My twenty-fourth anniversary with the world🌼]

If I had to choose an apprenticeship from my 23s, I would sum it up by quoting a line from a Sarah Dessen book, which originally says, “Life is long. Just because you don't get your chance right when you want or expect it doesn't mean it won't come. Fate doesn’t punch a time clock or consult a schedule »

I love this phrase. It's funny the way we run in the opposite direction of our age like he's chasing us and we're running away. What if it catches us? Nothing happens. We are so used to hearing and believing that life is extremely short, that we have to do everything now, if it doesn't happen now it will never happen, and if it didn't happen we have done something wrong. And it is not true.

It is also good to know that life is long, because it is. Maybe your chance is later, maybe something awaits you that you can't even imagine. We have no idea what might happen. And you got used to thinking that if you are not where you imagined today, you will never be. And it is not like that.

Although of course, the curious thing about the duality of life: you cannot take the philosophy that life is long and wait for destiny to knock on your door whenever that happens, hoping that something is going to happen to you just because, faithfully. believer you have something special that makes up for it. Because obviously there is only one life, and the time unlike it if it is short; So the important thing is to do the things you have, want and can do on a daily basis, because your opportunity is going to come, you are going to get it, create or catch it. And it won't be the only one you have ...
