Realisation

After a day of doing nothing I came to a realisation. School is not the only way to success. I now see and accept that it is one of the main way to success but even this way is a hit or miss. You may get good grades and be successful in school but it doesn't guarantee you're going to be a success in the real world.

There are other ways to be successful, you can start small and build a business or slowly climb up through positions in the office through hard work. I'm not saying that you should ignore school and start looking for other ways, I'm saying that even if you fail or you don't  get the results you want, there are other ways of reaching what you want with life.

It now makes sense to me that life is not a forked road of success or failure. It will make much more sense to compare life with a road that has many turns and has no end, you can drive on this road endlessly and there is no success or failure but it does have a lot of places you can stop on. It really depends on where you stop. You can drive it uphill and stay midway without reaching the peak or you can drive it all the way up then down and continue if you're not content with what you found there.

In the end, you may or may not realise that you've had it good and now you're having a terrible time, then all you do is move on, no matter how tired or in pain you are and if you die, remember all you've achieved. It's not for nothing after all life is about self satisfaction. If you look back and feel satisfied, you did good. No one else can say otherwise.

Wow... These words are so pretty and covered with naivety, clearly I haven't experienced the real world but for now, this is what I believe and I will stand by it.

Our sheep is out there somewhere, you just have to keep going.
