Where are you going?

Often times I do wonder Where I'm going. Or what I'm becoming. Sometimes I even get down on myself by trying to figure it all out. It doesn't always need to be figured out. I'm lost. You're lost. But that isn't necessarily a bad thing. By being lost we have the opportunity to find ourselves. Just as in this song "Where am I going?"

Where am I going?

And what will I find?

What's in this grab bag

That I call my mind?

What am I doing

Alone on the shelf?

Ain't it a shame,

But no one's to blame but myself.

Which way is clear

When you've lost your way

Year after year?

Do I keep falling in love for just a kick of it?

Staggering through the thin and thick of it,

Hating each old, tired trick of it,

Know what I am,

I'm good and sick of it!

Where am I going?

Why do I care?

Run where it's foul,

Run where it's fair,

No matter where I run I meet myself there.

Looking inside me, what do I see?

Anger and hope and doubt,

What am I all about?

And where am I going?

Tell me why do I care?

No matter where I run I meet myself there

Looking inside me, what do I see?

Anger and hope and doubt

What am I all about?

And where am I going?

Where am I going?

Granted the lyrics have a little more depressing feel but, they ring true. No matter where I run I meed myself there. You always have you. The first person you need to figure out is yourself. You are the strongest support you have. Trust in yourself and don't let go. Love yourself. Know what you are thinking and why you are thinking it. Believe in who you're becoming. Don't fall to pieces because of someone else. That way when the bigger fish come along, you can handle yourself just fine.
