life

Apparently recently I have been reflecting on the past and life a little more than I normally do; I also think that I have been blogging a lot.
I was just sitting on my computer looking through photos of old friends and thinking about where they are now. Like who is married and who is famous. Who has moved away and who has moved on from this life. And while I was thinking all of these things, I started to think about if this is where I thought I would be.
(Yes, I have noticed that all of my recent blogs have a similar theme)
Now, north I didn't foresee. I think I thought I would be going south. Right after high school, all I wanted was to be famous for my music and I was sure that would take me to California. Then after college, all I wanted was Texas.
At the present moment I have a Texas quarter (you know how Canada puts out nifty looking quarters for monumental things, like the olympics and such, well the USA did the same thing with all the states)
That quarter was a gift from my editor. And a little bit of an inspiration to go back someday.
Anyways, did you end up where you thought you would be? Not even physical location, are you doing what you thought you would do with your life?
I recognize that I am young and still have time.
But the things that scares me is settling. But is it considered settling if you are happy?

    personally, i don't believe in "settling" or "happy." and i'm not saying it to be controversial. i'm quite serious. and i'm not saying it to be depressing, because i find a lot of hope and freedom in the abandonment of the pursuit of such human inventions ;D but still, it's nice to feel a little "home" or a little "accomplishment" from time to time...in any case, i didn't imagine myself where i am. but i'm not sure i really bothered to prescribe myself a future context, because i knew it was pretty up for grabs. anyways. i just wrote a huge blog about this very topic...on a new blog i just started...which i will send you a link to tomorrow when i've decided that i for sure want to share it with others instead of just deleting it. hahah. <3
