It's Okay

I've been thinking lately about this life that I live in.

Thinking about, what my life must be like ? My mind keep asking that to myself, and I need an exact answer for me to immediately practice it into my life. But I just kept on thinking and the only answer that I got is : there is no such an exact answer to live the life. And for me, even there are holy book, but it only gives us picture of what we should avoid and what we better to do. But not an exact 'what my life must be like'. Do you get what I mean ? I am sorry, but I know I am such a bad descriptor. 

Because you know, everybody lives a different life, even they are in one family, but every member doesn't have the same routine, same friends, same job, same dream and etc. 

And I discovered by what I experienced, I have these two friends that in the same age,  the one is really successful with his/her business but she/he lives alone, but she/he still enjoying it. And the other friend, in that age, living happily with her/his partner building their dreams together. But who do you think is the right one ? Have you ever question about that ? Have you ever get the answer for that ? I did question this, but I don't have the exact answer, to be exact, I am not really sure about my answer.  Because I think there is no right or wrong when it comes to live the life that doesn't involve hurting  any kind of creature. Don't you think so ? 

There are peoples who already become so successful in their 20's, and also there are some peoples still finding their way about their vision, what they actually want to do in their life and stuffs. And that's okay. Because I don't think there is such a rule, to have a job, to be married and stuffs in certain age. If there is such a rule, I think this world will be like a running contest, we know exactly who wins and it will be really stressful because everybody is such in a rush and it will be boring, I guess. 

Having a target is really good thing, but to be in a rush I don't think that it's the right way to spend this precious life, right ? Many of my friends know exactly what they want to achieve, what they want to be, and know how they want to achieve it, good for them. And there are also many of my friends who still don't know what they want to achieve, what kind of success they want to reach and still have no idea about how to achieve it, they are still looking for one, good for them too. I think there is nothing wrong about it, as long as we are still trying and not just doing nothing, am I right ? 

It's okay to question yourself wether you are in this moment is heading up to where you want to be in life, it means that you're processing, not just standing still.

And I think success is relative,  everybody has their own criteria of success, it's really personal thing. And you know, some people's success might be something related to being famous, having many lands, or having a lot of money. And some other people's success might be like, having family and being a good wife or a good father to their kids, or to have a small house near rice fields. And for me, it's all fine. Dream is still a dream. Success is still a success. For it may be a simple thing, or complicated thing, big or small ( from others' perspective ) , it doesn't matter.

To know, where you are and where do you want to head up to ( even it's still blurry ) , is important. Then, every small steps will count. Keep on going while guessing if the steps that you take is the right steps for you, I think it's really okay. I guess we humans, don't have that hundred percent sure about what we're doing but we just do it anyway. I believe while we are doing it step by step, and pray as well, we will eventually arrive there. Inshaa Allah.

And I've seen many, not all people have their success in their early life, and it's still amazing. Because we know that they don't quit, they keep on going.

So actually, this is me writing for myself, reminding that it's okay if I am myself a bit worry and unsure what to do for the future, but I know one thing for sure is to keep on going, having confident to keep on going, enjoying the process that I have to go through, understanding that there will be ups and downs, and it's okay and to not compare my success to others' success, because it's truly personal.

And if you are feeling the same as I do, through this I want to encourage you to keep on going no matter what, to always have the faith. Inshaa Allah, just like what my mom said to me "Sedikit - dikit lama - lama jadi bukit." Fighting! 

Doesn't Really Matter
