CROSS ROADS

People say, “Listen to your heart when confused.”  Well my heart is kind of singing a remix song, all choices coming up at the same time.

I’m standing in such a place in my life where I have to choose between 2 right decisions! It’s the end of my U.G. life and I have to decide ‘what’s next’? I thought I would get placed by the end of my final exams and be working for about a year or 2 and then pursue P.G.

Well, life is all about expecting the unexpected! I didn’t get placed... at all... as there were no proper placements! Disappointed, I turned to pursue P.G...  I cannot decide as to what to do. I want to work so badly since I want my father to finally sit and relax. It’s high time he sits back and enjoys the cricket matches and movies.Coming back to my P.G., I don’t know from where all of a sudden everyone is telling me to do mass communication. Literally everyone! From my sister to my teachers to my friends, they say they’re surely going to see me as a journalist. On the other hand there are people telling me to do something in commerce only, since I have been learning it with great difficulty for 5 years… I have absolute no clue as to what I’m going to do. I see people around me filling up forms, I’m happy that they’re sure about what they are doing, unlike me.I’m scared for the very first time in my life… scared whether I’ll be something in life, scared that whatever I’ll be doing will give me happiness and satisfaction. I got so scared that I wrote this at 2 in the morning…I stand in the cross roads of my life not knowing where to turn, I pray to god to give me a job because that’s the ONLY thing I’m sure about. It aches within me to see my father work so hard even now.

All this reminds me of Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken” poem!

Let’s see where life takes me…  

Will let you know sooooon…. Hope for the best!
