Walter Crane (British, 1845-1915)

The Swan Maidens, 1894

I am 23, I feel the same. I’m starting to feel like it’s a normal feeling in your twenties. Everyone is going through a different path and we often compare ourselves, thinking the other ones have picked the right choice or path. Or even we think that that other thing we thought about once might have been better than what we are currently doing.

The thing is, you are finding your path now.

You might feel confused or like a failure but that is because more often than not you are thinking about all that you have not accomplished or have yet to accomplish. You are looking at an objective far away in your life. Maybe about your degree, maybe about the job you want to have with that, or maybe something else entirely different, but still far away.

Just try to switch your focus, think about what you have done today. How wonderful is that. This is not about toxic positivity and how you should always be happy and shit. It’s about treating yourself and your acts with more kindness.

If someone else was doing what you are doing right now would you criticise them the same way to do with yourself? I don’t think so.

I think it’s the alcohol speaking but sometimes I feel like I’ve failed at life even though I’m only like 20. I feel like I should’ve picked Stanford which my family would’ve felt more inclined to send me off to or idk I should’ve stayed in France or something. I don’t know I’m not really excited to start my school even thought it’s objectively a good school most people study really hard to get into. I just feel like I’m wasting my life
