Moving forward

I feel that my life is at a standstill.
Maybe it's because it's the end of the year. Or maybe because friends are starting new chapters in their lives (married or babies) while others are away, have moved away or will soon be moving away. Things are changing for everyone while I am in almost the same place and state.

On one hand, I know I chose this. There was a time I was too hurried in growing up and wanting to do things on my own. But then I realized that I was not ready. It was superficial and mostly it was an escape plan. and when I embraced this reality I learned to appreciate the now. it was a time when I felt that I had not wanted to move forward, felt that I had not had enough of my youth and family time.

But what now?
2010 was a great year of self discovery and introspection.
2011 was a year of adventure and new experiences. I am thankful for the many trips that I had the chance to take. And perhaps it had been thru these trips which have made me see the smallness of my life. There is so much out there! Unfortunately, this has also come along with the feeling of restlessness.

I want to move forward, go places, do great things. But perhaps a good question to ask myself is 'where do I want to go?'
