“Please insert the right formula”

Image
Me: you know, it’s so damn hard to get your life figured out, to calculate the right plans and the right amount of trust in the pace while maintaining a pretty good share of correct decisions and rationale. Me: How is adulthood done again?  Life: " ignores all text" Life: *Please insert the right formula to proceed forward*

Humans on different orbits

You know what the problem is, some of us try as hard as we can, and with as much amount of troubles we endure between each other, ones that would have no significant meaning in a certain amount of time, to connect and let the positive nostalgic parts of us conquer; we realize that life is too short and we don’t wait until it’s too late to meld our hearts. We understand that through these self-exploratory phases we go through and the times of uncertainty and self-loss, we ultimately hurt people closest to us, without having that actual intention, only because life has threw us on different planets at that certain phase, leaving us in a place where we can’t seem to find a connecting point or a similar language for communication, therefore, we end up as aliens trying to understand each other, but there is no translation app that could get us both, leaving us with more losses and emotional scars.

Are you scared? Of going back to real life after this ends? Are you afraid of life dragging you into its own routine net and into the places you were so strongly trying to escape?
