perplexity

Life is full of choices and I have no idea which to make . "Choose one and sacrifice the other" they say . And yet who would want to bear the consquence of not making the other choice ? And perhaps when we had made the choice would we then regret that we have taken that route ? Sometimes I get so puzzled in life, making myself rooted deep in a dilemma . Which are the correct choices ? Which are the ones to make ? Which are those that won't make you regret or those that make you even a better person you yearn to be ?

They say " Follow your heart and you can never be wrong " . But have they ever wondered, what if you have no idea what your heart wants ? And perhaps sometimes I ponder that maybe they don't even practise what they preach . The heart is the core of our soul . The source of everything . Without a heart, you're nothing except a living corpse that deems to be forgotten and also non-existent in this life . Yet with a heart, does it make you any different ? With all these choices to make in life, would a heart actually help you make the right choices ?

The world is full of wonders . Even the wisest old man cannot comprehend his life, talk about the world . Choices that impacts their life . Even choices that are minor might make a huge difference in the end . Choices that seem common like the option to go a place after school or what to eat during lunch . Every choice that we make affects our life and we cannot rewind the time . We can't undo the past nor can we predict the future .

And the point is, we can't even comprehend the present . We can't depend on the people around us to help us make decisions because it's your own life . No matter what choice you make, it might at most only affect their life a little . Even if you suffer or enjoy the benefits after making that choice, they are not that much involved as yourself . At this point you wonder if those around you really cares ? Because whatever happens to you, it actually doesn't affect them at all .

How do you be someone that others want you to be ? How do you be someone that you yearn to be ? How do you be someone that you really are ? Most importantly, how do you know who you really are .. ?
