I always hate life as the days goes by, but then the midnight come and that’s when everything hits me in a second just like a truck, or a meteorite, or big bang just happened or whatever big that is not really good.
I always know that I do always on my own, i knew it from the start. I just hate when the midnight came and made it more obvious. It’s not that noone is kind enough to accompany me through the darkest. It’s just… hard to go through
Changes are scary, or at least that’s what I though. I hope the HR or recruiting team for the corporate I applied never read this, because I sometimes said that my “strength” is adaptive. Well it’s true (this sentence made to convince the recruiting team), I do have ability to fit in just fine in a new environment, totally adaptive as it is. BUT, we all knew that feeling in between two big phase in life. The top 2 is usually after highschool graduation and after the real ones (the uni graduation), it feels like we all get hit by a truck called reality, and the realization that we all on our own came.
Then the question pops up, where do I run when this happens? or sometime it’s more like, so what now?
Everything seems so blurry and scary, feels like I don’t even want to open my eyes anymore, I just wanna sleep at night… But I couldn’t. Indeed everything is blurry, but it is also crowded as it is, there are much things but blurry. Which made everything worse because I can’t even focus on one thing at a time, and everyone, that’s how adulting described oversimplified.
But, then another thought comes “How can I am not grateful for everything I had? Did I take it all for granted?” No. The answer is simply no. If you still have that thought, then you are a considerate person. You consider being grateful, you are being grateful. We can questionable our life choice while being grateful, it is nowhere near opposite, they can happened side by side at a time.
So, where do I run when everyone falls asleep? Nowhere. I should just sleep too and look forward to another new day ahead. Then what? Then, I have to face the ordinary day I will live my life, the not-so-special daily life with challenge and many nights of crying, of course there are smile too (I hope). Life is build by choice, we always have choice, even in the most dead-end situation there will always choice and hope. We should never run from anything to anyone, we just have to go through it and never depends to anyone, because that’s just how life goes.
Falls asleep is indeed a way of everyone runs from something they encountered. It leads the answer to the big question, we are the “everyone” so just sleep when everyone falls asleep.
