The sun always comes out again.
"Get a job", "Choose a career", "Cut your hair", "Change your way of dressing", "Change your attitude", you do not reach this age without first hearing things like these, or at least I do not I did it. Why? What is there a manual on how to grow and become a functional member of society? What is this a list of the steps you must take to become someone in life? And is it that if you do not comply with these steps your life will become meaningless nonsense and society will end up spitting on you like a piece of useless flesh?
As if it were not enough to have to face all the dissociations that adolescence brings, one must also begin to decide for their future, the future of which one is unconcerned for a time only to come back after a blow to awaken you to reality, and once he has returned there is nothing you can do to avoid it. The muounstro that harassed you from under the bed when you were a child, you place your place in the future, who is not limited to stalking you under the bed on nights when you want to get a rest, no, this new monster formed by the uncertainty of your destination stalks you day and night, arriving when you want to bother you at all times.
The baccalaureate can become the best time of your life and at the same time it can be the end of it if, like me, you feel aversion to what you know awaits you when it is over. The lonely life that brings with it a sea of decisions, of which each one will take you through different paths from which there will be no return. The uncertainty of personal success.
Why? What is success and how is it achieved? It seems to be, according to all those who advise you at this age, that success is what you feel at the moment you find yourself living an economically balanced life. The security of economic independence and freedom of decision.
But that you can not reach that goal by other ways than those indicated by those people who say they have reached it? What chance do you not have the right to succeed if you do not have the necessary skills to follow that series of steps? Do you deserve to be considered the idiot of the people if you decide not to follow that path and prefer to follow the risky path of your dreams that, according to successful people say "will not take you to anything" that "is too risky"?
Well this is the age in which one is assaulted by this series of questions that will not be released until someday achieve "success". I want to invite you to take away that fear, that mask, because without happiness a human being is nothing brother, salt and sand, fight for your dreams and do not let anyone tell you that you can not.
The sun always comes out again.
