Positions

Sometimes, it feels like I am somehow living life ‘the wrong way’. Everyone has a different journey through life, but it feels difficult not to compare myself to others.

I think the best way to represent the feeling is that there are things that others have that I want, and that my efforts to obtain those things haven’t been successful for me. How can these people have these things (seemingly) so easily, and yet here I am struggling to get to where they are? What am I doing wrong? Am I simply not good enough?

I know a big part of this is simply perception. There might be others that are struggling just like me. Those people that have the things that I might want, they may not have gotten to where they are as easily as I feel like they would have. Heck, maybe there’s some part of my life that someone might want for themselves; roles reversed.

I envy people who are able to remember quotes so clearly, or are otherwise able to summarize a point so succintly and eloquently. This would probably be a great place to put a quote. I laugh to myself.

When is it better to let go of a dream, instead of putting in more effort to keep chasing it?
