Thinking of the future.

"You can take a picture of what you see. In the future, where will I be?"-Chris Martin

The question I most ask myself, at the end of the day, is usually a question that I know the answer to but tonight, I've come up with a new question that I really can't find the answer to.

The question is, "Where will I be in twenty years?"

The road takes us many places, I guess, but I seem to have a idea of the path that most of my friends are on.

Some good, some bad.

But as for myself....I really don't know anymore.

Sometimes, I feel like everything has been planned out for me. Other times, I feel as if I don't know what the next second of my life will bring.

Few things are forever, that's for sure. And few things are garanteed, that's for DAMN sure.

I always seem to figure things out sooner or later but this question, keeps bugging me!

Where will I be in twenty years? I honestly have no clue.

As far as I know, I could be a bum, I could be a politician, I could be a millionaire or I could just be homeless. I could end up a possibility of a trillion things but the hard thing is knowing if I'm on the path to a normal existance, a great life or a terrible life.

I mean, who am I in the future? A great man or a evil man? A success or a failure? Am I the same or am I completley different? Am I still a loner or far from it?

These are the questions that I ask myself everyday, and each day that I live, is another day towards getting the answers to my questions.

At what point does a person find peace within their lives? At what point is it alright not to have all the answers all of the time? At what point does a person find what they're looking for?

They say that your present determines your future, for me, I'm not so sure that that is a good thing.

I mean, with all of this confusion, anger, uncertainty, discomfort and envy, I'm not sure if anyone's future should be the foundation of their future.

It's a scary thought in my mind, to constantly repeat this dysfuntion and still hold on to these bitter feelings even so far away from now. I don't want to be like this forever.

I want to move on to bigger and better things someday. I want to do things that few people have done before. I want to do something that matters. I want to find peace of mind.

Are these things realistic or arethey just fantasies that I'll never be able to have? I don't know.

But one thing that I do know is, even if my dreams and aspirations are never met, I'm sure it's going to be a interesting journey just finding out.


Where will you be in twenty years?
