I've been feeling a little down the past few days, doubting everything; thinking that maybe I won't be able to do what I want or be worthwhile; and then I'd have wasted my time and my energy over nothing and disappointed the people closest to me. It was very depressing, I was worried and scared sick and I didn't know what to do, coz I know that I have to give my dreams a chance and I couldn't back out that early.
I decided to put my worries aside for a while and busied myself with work for the day (today actually). And then I met a friend, and we had a long relaxed chat about many random things, from trivial issues to important reflections about life, love and careers...etc.
And then he something; a sentence that was not at all meant as a piece of advice, or something to comfort me, just a passing phrase in the middle of a long conversation. But that simple phrase rang heavily in my ears, and went through my head to the part where I had buried my worries yesterday, and somehow managed to calm them down completely, as if I'd taken a strong pain killer for a mild headache. And I stopped and thought of that sentence for a while, and it made a lot of sense to me, gave me more hope and confidence.
Never mind what the sentence was, I was just glad that I'd put my worries aside for a day, didn't think about anything and decided to meet an old friend whom advice I didn't ask for, but who had had a perfect pain killer for my useless worrying!
Don't you love it when that happens? :)
