             Have you ever stopped and wondered "Where the heck am I headed with my life?". I know that I have, many times. When we're children, we're exposed to the sentence "When I grow up...". Here's the problem; we're grown up. Now what? 
              Allow me to take my guard down for a moment. Two years ago, I was sitting in a car, in a stranded parking lot, crying like a child. I had to leave for university, grow up and make a life for myself. I knew what i was supposed to do; please my family and become a doctor. Like many people, I wanted to become a doctor for about five minutes after watching Grey's Anatomy. My mistake was that I had voiced that comment to my family. So flash back again to that parking lot. I remember thinking "I will be a failure." I was terrified of ending up with no plan and drowning in university bills over bachelor degrees that I never cared about, leaving me hating my work life.
               I'm sitting in the back of the car, trying not to scream at the top of my lungs. I'm crying. Do you know why I was crying? Because I hadn't realized that I wasn't the one making the plan. 
                Flash forward! Here I am. I don't know my plan, but I've learnt that I don't have to. God knows it. He is like the perfect parent who sits there with the agenda and calender saying "No dear, you can't go to your friends house because you have a dentist appointment! You can go after." That may or may not make sense to you. What I am trying to say is that God is going to let us struggle and go through the parts of life that we dislike (dentist) , however, in the long run, he has the plan, he give us what is right for us and what makes us happy (friends house). Make more sense?
                  All I know is that it took me years to realize that, and no one deserves to stress about it. If you don't believe in God, don't stress it anyway! Leave it to fate! I know that for the ones who do believe, you'll get where i'm going with this post. 

                   God's got this under control. He's following you with his little agenda, making sure that everything goes according to plan. His plan. 
 

"God has the most amazing plan for you"
