I’m 17 and feel like my life is ending before it’s even begun

“Just because you had a rough week or a couple of bad days, it doesn’t mean the world stopped spinning.” This one really stuck with me. When I get into a rut it’s easy for me to stay there, assuming that’s my life. But that’s not true. At any moment I can get out of that hole and rejoin a bustling and lively world.

Life never revealed itself to me in grand plans either… just in small steps, one breath ahead of the dark. There’s a strange mercy in not knowing, it keeps us alive enough to keep moving.

Reading this and watching the Dead Poets society was exactly what I needed to hear. Especially today when it doesn't feel all too good. Thank you ✨

just what I needed to read while waiting on the train to take me back home after a spontaneous visit to my hometown in the middle of the week! I've been telling myself this for a long time, really trying to let myself be and just "go with the flow" and you here have described it beautifully. Thank you - Francisco

This was so comforting, really. Thank you for this. Lately everyone has been working like crazy towards what they plan to do after getting the degree and here I... Was just 🧍🧍🧍feeling so lost. I was thinking "why don't I know what my next step is? What I want next?" I was *freaking out*. This was really comforting. It brought me peace. I will focus on living the present for now. Do my best in whatever I can and let life unfold into it's beautiful mess by itself and lead the way.

Thank you for writing this piece and sharing with us. I hope you have a great day/night ahead.
