I have been reflecting recently. There are so many thoughts I can no longer contain but at the same time, I cannot share these thoughts for fear of not being taken seriously or that I may be of bother to them.
I have been having problems with motivation and I guess it was quite timely that I saw the movie The Art of Getting By (2011). It has been in my hard drive since I first heard it would be aired on ETC but I never watched it. If you asked me the movie is underrated or perhaps I'm a bit biased considering I can relate to it.
Just to give an overview, George Zinavoy (Freddie Highmore) is a high school senior who feels unmotivated to do anything particularly school work. He also believes that falling in love is a waste of time and that life can be allotted for much more important things - that is until he met Sally Howe (Emma Roberts).
This year (2014), I cry pretty easily. At the end of this film, the "feels" got to me and I teared up mainly because he finally found the push he needed to finish high school and that helped me find mine, sort of. Today, I had every intention of finishing my work but to my surprise, I had little work to do. But, recreation-wise, I finally did some of the things I have been wanting to do like watch the new episodes of Once Upon a Time.
At the end of the day, we always ask the (cliche) question: What is the purpose of my life? or What am I doing here?. From the recent installment of our Skills Training Enhance Program (STEP Up), I learned that the things (or answers) you need cannot always be said. You would just know. And I intend to find my answer, my purpose.
You should find yours too.
Toodles~
