Live a ‘want to’ life not a ‘have to’ one

Hey everybody,

I’ve recently been thinking (surprise surprise) and anyway I’ve realised that there are a lot of things in our lives that we just have to do. I’m talking GCSE’s (if you’re not English or you don’t live in England these are very quite important exams you have to take in Year 10 and 11), working, going to school and a lot of other things. And no I’m not saying don’t work or go to school or bother with exams in general – I’m mainly talking about choices here.

There are a lot of choices you either have already made or will make that will or have been ones you felt or will feel like you have to make. (that was one long sentence) I think it’s important to remember that there’s always an option. After all it is called a “choice” for a reason.

choice

tʃɔɪs/

noun

1. an act of choosing between two or more possibilities.

   “the choice between good and evil”

Even in the definition (which I was bothered enough to search up) it says “two or more possibilities” and that is key because out of the two or more, one will be a have to choice and one will be a want to choice. The want to choice is most important because its YOUR life and the choice you make will affect YOUR life and your life only. I feel like the society today pressurises us to do a lot of things and you just get surrounded by everyone chanting you have to do this and that. I feel like their only explanation is “because you have to” and as far as explanations go that is not one.

Sometimes it can even get too much, when you stop living and just exist and that’s no good.

You need- no you have to (that’s kind of ironic actually) break the wall that’s stopping you from living your life the way you want to and if that means having to find a hammer IT DOES NOT MATTER because as long as you break the barrier in the end, that’s all that matters.

You do NOT need a permission to live your life to the fullest and neither do you need a reason to do the things you want. Normal is boring and boring is normal so just be you. Make life your own. *virtual hugs*

Lots of love,
