I know someone or should I say I know some people who were
smart enough to plan their lives when they were teenagers including myself. I did plan
my life and had just the perfect plan. I knew what University I wanted to attend. I pictured my life on campus. I wanted to go to graduate school after my Bachelors but before that I wanted to be a Teaching Assistant when I graduated. And guess
what I did get to be and do all that I had planned. I also planned my career and my whole life generally.
It was great to live my dream, I thought I had my life all figured out and had a fool proof plan. I am a go getter who sticks to her plans and gets annoyed if she has to do something that she hasn’t planned for. I plan my week ahead, if anything unexpected cropped up then I would get very upset. There are people who can no doubt identify with me. It’s amazing how I had thought that I had my whole life figured out. I had even planned my relationships. But I’ve come to know that life isn’t a perfectly written script that goes according to what I’ve written. We can’t always have our way. There are times when life gives us what we really need which might not be what we have dreamed of or for. Sometimes things happen that bring us pain and cause us so much sorrow. Things do happen that we cannot understand and some situations are just beyond our control.
