I don't know what I'm doing with my life... and that's okay | Hometown diaries

This video took me by surprise. You look and sound just like my daughter but we're in Texas. She's in a similar situation, where she doesn't know where her life is going. I'll tell you what I tell her, don't worry so much about it. Take each day as it comes. Maybe don't use other people's benchmarks for gauging where you should be in life. Everyone has their own internal struggles and just because it looks like someone is thriving, it's just not always the reality. I'll end with this, back in 2018 my wife volunteered to copy edit a bunch stories the high school kids wrote about their hopes and dreams for life after school. And man was it eye opening. We live in a nice neighborhood but some of the stories these told didn't look at all like what we were seeing. Not all, but a lot of them were sad, depressed and just generally lost. There wasn't anything bad but we were surprised because these were neighborhood kids and they all seemed pretty happy, did great in school, didn't get into trouble. You never know what's going in with people on the inside. You're not the odd person out. It's likely that most other people your age are kinda lost too.

Thank you for taking the time and writing such a detailed comment 🥺 It's really encouraging to see that I'm not the only one going through something like this or feeling this way. It took me some time to not stress so much over my future, but I'm in a good place now - living in the moment and just feeling excited about life 🤍

I love vlogs like this. Calming, relatable and there’s depth to it. I aspire to create content like this but just end up trying to be funny and entertaining even if I’m not feeling that way…idk why… Anyway I’m currently in a weird place and older…but also don’t miss my 9-5 life except when people ask what I do and I suddenly feel like a loser.

Thanks 🥹 I've been filming for over 4 months now and I just recently started to feel like I'm getting a hang of it 🙈 It's a constant work in progress, so just keep trying! Don't feel like a loser! Maybe you're just in a phase of life that's kinda like in between things. Things get better with time and new opportunities, just be patient and give yourself space to grow 🤍

[@patidzwigon_]

I wasn't planning to make it 15:15, that's just how it turned out 🙈 Maybe that's a sign that I'm doing the right things 🥺
