A few years ago I was lost. Frustrated. Scared. Unsure. Anxious. Trapped. Unfulfilled. Stuck in a dead-end job. Smothered by society’s expectations. Didn’t have a clue what I wanted to do with my life.

I cared for myself enough to change my life, but I didn’t have the slightest clue where to start. I spent my days wishing that things would change—that I could escape a life that my soul could no longer bear.

The worst part of all, I was living the life that society had always told me to live. “Find a secure job, work hard,” they would say. “Get a solid job and work your way up the ladder.”

I don’t know about you, but it turns out that for me, the “right thing to do” sucked the joy out of life.

Explanation:

The quietness of the mountains

The stillness of the air

Barely afternoon and yet everyone was there

Transitioning from summer to autumn

The horses lined up in the back

Waiting for the gate to open

Feeling the excitement

but curious of who will win

That is the time

when I felt like I was at home
