Crossroads

This week has been intense emotionally. While I have always known that my parents and my extended family want me to choose a life partner, settle down, (whatever that means), I seem to have underestimated how worried they are.

These are the same people who've stood behind me in every venture, telling me I can achieve anything I set my mind to. Now suddenly, I see the effect of many of my decisions, good and bad.

So what does the future hold? At this juncture, more questions than answers, more joy than is believable, more sadness that I hope will be countered by joy.

At this point, a girl who was so sure of everything in her life, has let her mind and soul to the mercies of time and love, leaving herself vulnerable. She can only come out stronger, and free.

For it is in the expression, that true freedom lies for her soul.
