Slow and steady wins the race!

Dearest Sapph, for the last time, please stop allowing yourself to be pulled into people's pace. There's usually only one significant result from allowing that to happen, which is wallowing in self-pity when you feel that you can't or will never be able to match that pace. Why do that to yourself? After all, everyone has their way of living, and so do you, everyone has their very own pace, sometimes they coincide, and most of the time they don't, but that's that! For every solid step you take, is a step forward, and for all you know, the road you have to reach the goal is a shorter one than those who walk faster, you might reach before them even. The destination is important, but the enjoy is to be enjoyable.
And off topic, don't you think it's so true that it's impossible to get lost when you have no destination in mind? Just like how it doesn't matter which way to go if you don't know where you want to go - Alice in wonderland. People can only float so long before they get tired and bored, everyone would eventually want a place that they can return to, which is generally known as home, but in reality, it can take many forms, such as people. I think people with a purpose, with a goal, with some form of recognition in their worth of living, are the most radiant.
Sorry if the above paragraph seems to be made up of random stuff that don't link. That gives you an idea of how my brain functions. Quick update: Haven't got much studying done, really need to asap! Been planning Japan trip, mother might be going with me, she fears me getting lost. Right. :) Much left to plan on trip, mightn't do such a thing again in a long time, tiring ya'know, all these detailed planning. First driving lesson on tuesday, let's see how well my body remembers how to drive, because my mind has certainly forgotten. Lastly, stop falling into the chaise of feeling inferior to others. I have led a smooth road (relatively) of life. The recent incident proves that, believe in it, believe in myself, cheer up. :)

It's sometimes oddly easier to open up to a random stranger on the net than to someone around you.
