1.Where am I coming from?
2.Who am I?
& 3.Where do I want to go next?
1. Where am I coming from?
The first question seems to be very simple for most of us - the answer is often geographical.
A country, a city, a house.
In reality the answer is way more complex.
In which culture was I born into? Who were my friends? How was i raised? How much freedom did i have? & "last but not least" which relationship did i have to my family?
Plenty of factors are important. Luckily, these factors aren't only the answer for the first question, they give the answer for a big part of the second one as well.
Who am I?
At this moment it doesn't only depend on our roots and surrounding anymore, but another important aspect affects our answer.
Decisions.
We decide every day who we are. We decide if we give up the first time failing, or if we laugh and carry on.
At the end, we have to look in the mirror and either be happy with what we see, or never look in a mirror again.
Where do I want to go?
So the last question is tricky, because you must have already answered the first two questions, to get to the third.
The porblem is, as older as we get, as often we get to hear the last one, and as naturally the others expect an correct anwer.
The first time I unfortunately had to confront myself with this question, was when I turned 18 and finished school.
Do I want to go to uni? What do I want to study? What job do I want to get later on? and most important - What's the fastes way to earn some money?
I thought about that for hours and hours and suddendly I knew exactlly where I want to go next in my life.
FAR.FAR.AWAY
