What to do when everyone and everything around you appears to be moving ahead, going somewhere, at least moving one little step forward at a time; and you appear to be stuck at the same place? Fixed at a point in time? At a standstill? At crossroads?
Are these thoughts indicative of you being unappreciative of what you have been blessed with? Or maybe even being thankless for everything that you have? If so, then what will constitute as being right? And who decides if it’s indeed right?
I am sure it’s not jealousy. Its more of a feeling of restlessness, or of not belonging to a place or to someone, I am not really sure. Whatever it is , it weighs you down, just devours you, gulping away any spec of energy or excitement. Maybe it’s just a phase that will pass or maybe it’s a sign from the Universe to make a change.
So what do you do in such a situation? Shall one choose the most uncomfortable and difficult way to manage as someone I have great respect for believe? Or shall one follow the heart? Or just let things be for the time being?

Wow! Yes we all found ourselves at crossroads at each stage of life, that’s very thought provoking.
Thank you very much 🙂
A very thought provoking piece which surely makes you wonder the journey we embark upon intentionally or unknowingly but finding a purpose or letting it to be built, is the end, which requires focus. Every journey which is started has an end, so does every phase.
Thank you Aishah, every phase indeed comes to an end. But what we learn during the journey remains forever. And probably, this is what growth is all about too…
