Hii loves,
It’s been a week, which is pretty great because I’m actually staying consistent with updating the blog!! (I have a thing where I let go of my hobbies after a few weeks, so this is already an achievement....)
I’ll start off by saying that I’ve updated the blog a little bit! My favorite page is probably Life’s Little Letters. You can find it on the navigation bar, it’s the little bouquet ♡
But back to the topic for today...
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I feel like I’m behind on things. Like, there are so many things I want to do, places I want to go, hobbies I want to try and experiences I want to have, but somehow there’s never enough time for everything.
And maybe you guys feel the same way?
Maybe I’m not actually behind. Maybe everything is just going at my own pace, and the reason things keep getting pushed back is because we’re gaining SO much knowledge and experiencing so many new things at the same time.
School alone feels like learning 500 new things every two weeks haha. And then there’s everything outside of school too friendships, hobbies, figuring yourself out, thinking about the future, trying new things, and also just... actually living.
Sometimes I look at other people and think, “Wait, why am I not doing that yet?” or “Shouldn’t I have figured this out by now?”
But realistically, we’re all doing things for the first time.
So maybe I don’t need to rush everything.
Maybe I can start that hobby a little later. Maybe I can experience something next year instead of this year. Maybe some things getting pushed back doesn’t mean they’re never going to happen.
And honestly, I think I need to remind myself of that more often.
If you’ve been feeling like you’re behind too, maybe you’re not. Maybe you’re just going at your own speed. ♡
Anywayyy, that’s my little thought for today. I’d actually love to know if any of you have felt like this too, because I feel like it’s something we probably think about way more than we talk about.
See you in the next one loves ♡
xoxo,
Mindie ♡
same tbh, I feel the same way. but we need to do things at our own pace without comparing our progress
ReplyDeleteIt's actually so real, because everything happens at our own pace, and I think that's what makes life so interesting. But I also believe that comparing ourselves to others can be part of the progress, to a certain extent. Sometimes it can motivate us or help us realise what we want for ourselves, as long as we don't let it make us feel like we're falling behind. thanks for commenting!
