Me & You- That Self Discovery Boat


"Welcome! Welcome! And hop onto the Self Discovery Boat! Take one look in the mirror and tell me what you see..."
When I look in the mirror... I still can't see myself and I can't see my future. I feel like I'm walking aimlessly in life. I only have two more years in highschool and I have no idea what college I would like to go to or what I want to do. Yes of course I can look into writing, but that's not the only thing I have. Or... is it? I've been struggling to find all sorts of things that I can excel in. Cheerleading I'm learning slowly, but that takes time. I don't even know what I am. I can't even describe myself. Maybe I am not the only one. Do you know who you are? And, why does it take a lifetime to complete the journey of self-discovery? We try many things and we may excel, but all those things don't really form our personality and who we are as a person. The future is coming much to fast for my liking. Writing cannot be the only thing that I have to offer. It's just not possible for me just to have that one gift. Those hidden talents can't take a lifetime. They need to emerge from heart and burst forth.I am growing impatient and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Cheer quote of the day: " GOOOOOOOOO cheerleaders, woo!"

I know people (Mostly men, or so they think) that are in their 30's and evben 40's who have not one blessed clue what they want in life.

They wander aimlessly, hoping that someone else will do things for them. Take charge of your life and make your own decisions. I am not saying you have to buck the system 100%, but you know right from worng, and you know what gives you pleasure.

Then pursue those p;leasures and they will lead you to where you want to be! Trust me...I know.

What kinda stuff are you thinking about? That might help. What you like to do is a big part of it. Maybe you will have more dreams.?

I'm not sure what I want in life or what life has to offer. I do know, however, that life wouldn't be what it is if everyone knew exactly what they wanted right away. People wait decades before they find their one true calling. And I think that is all a ppart of living. Its just something you have to wait for. I used to want to move to Hawaii and go to college for marine biology but now I'm considering becoming a coriner. I don't know tho. I'm not worried about it either. It takes time, thought and inspiration. You really can't JUST decide. I think it has to come to you.
I'm not sure I can descirbe myself either. I don't think I should be able to tho and nither should you. Life is about discovery, and without it, living wouldn't be as exciting. You cant really describe yourself until you've FOUND everything. I think your personality writes itself. You just check for errors and publish it. I do know a few things about myself, so far...
-I'm a people person
-I want a lot in life
-I'm determined
-I'm intellegent (in most areas)
-I can push myself to the limit
-I love my family and friends
-I'm opinionated
-and more...

As for your talents, I think you are an amazing writer and you have a lot to say. I think you are ready to live life prepared for what comes your way even tho you might not know it. I know for a fact you are determined, and it seems like your a pretty good cheerleader. You can get your point across without having to say to much. You have qualities that are undescribable and iconic. I think a lot of people look up to you, for your wisdom, your way of life and your curiousity.
I can't describe you as a person as well as some others might be able to but I know your very nice, you are opinionated, determined, caring, honest, beautiful, self-concious but also confident, and you are your own person.

(Sorry if I came off kinda "preachy". I didn't mean to say thats EXACTLY how you are or how you should be, but it was just my opion.)
