I'll be like "I don't care" then...

I used to wonder on how being an adult is actually like. 

At first, I thought being an adult is when you're finally getting to know of yourself, staying true to yourself. 

At first, I thought being an adult is when you will know what you're doing and being confident of what you're choosing to do, being proud of what you're standing for and being happy with places you are deciding to be.

At some points, I thought I have become an adult. I've been living my life humbly, you know, I never claim whatever is not mine, never depend on anyone, standing on my own ground, battling this adulthood world on my own. My life is a series of decision I took which I (so far) never really regret of (?).

Somehow, lately, I feel I've become so chicken hearted, changeable, unsteady.

I'll be like "I don't care" then almost kill myself.

I'll be like "yeah I'm good" then "can we change the topic before I cry?"

I'll be like "fuck it we ball" then lay awake writing 4 pages essay on my head about why I'm upset.

But then I start to get tired of pretending that shit don't get to me. At least not in front of my own self. It just doesn't look cool anymore. It's beginning to look pathetic now.

But again... aren't most of adults just like me?

Or did I fail to understand this whole thing from the get-go?

Yeah it's either I'm not one, or we all just actually are.

Dalai Lama: Behind Our Anxiety, the Fear of Being Unneeded By  THE DALAI LAMA  and  ARTHUR C. BROOKS NOV. 4, 2016 In many ways, there has never been a better time to be alive. Violence plagues some corners of the world, and too many still live under the grip of tyrannical regimes. And although all the world’s major faiths teach love, compassion and tolerance, unthinkable violence is being perpetrated in the name of religion. And yet, fewer among us are poor, fewer are hungry, fewer children are dying, and more men and women can read than ever before.   In many countries, recognition of women’s and minority rights is now the norm. There is still much work to do, of course, but there is hope and there is progress. How strange, then, to see such anger and great discontent in some of the world’s richest nations. In the United States, Britain and across the European Continent, people are convulsed with political frustration and anxiety about the futur...

Sometimes I wonder, how weak a human being could be. We could see some answers were right there all the way, yet we just cannot see them. In some cases, we were blinded by some fancy resolutions, focusing on some imaginary scenarios we created inside our head rather than confronting the reality and logically solve it. Or, in some others, respectively, the pain we are feeling, the worries we are having, and the burden we are bearing are just incredibly overwhelming to the point we feel like exploding. To the point where it feels like there is no way out. To the point where... we are one step away from giving up on it. Yeah... on life. On staying alive.
