Any Stucks?

Hello world! Sorry that I took an immediate hiatus, but life is really weird, and I have found myself in a rut. Like many others, I wake up, go to work, come home, go to sleep and do it all over again. I am in a routine, and though I thought it would be comforting, I found it to be daunting. Then one day, my daily routine made me think a little deeper about why I feel this way.

Every morning at my office we go around the room and discuss our priorities for the day, and at the end of every meeting, someone asks if anyone is stuck and needs help? Though I am not stuck with my career, I realized I am stuck with where I am in life. But I am 22, so this all seemed way too dramatic to feel trapped at this point. Then I thought, if it is okay to ask for help when you are stuck with the tasks in your career, then it is okay to be stuck in your personal life.

So here is my advice to anyone who is feeling stuck right now. Don't sit and wait for things to happen, but don't rush what isn't meant to be. Do what makes you happiest, just know, the grass is always greener. It's okay to feel stuck in life. I think it's time I grow up a little bit and stop pouting about not loving everything about my life at this exact moment.

There are so many things to be grateful for in this phase of life, that wishing everything was different simply is not fair. Choose what makes you happy, know you are not alone in how you are feeling, and keep in mind that you have the ability to change your life at any given moment.

Sometimes it is okay not to plan the next part of your life and to just embrace the present, because not everything is going to be how you imagine it to be. So, enjoy the ride while the wave is here because before you know it everything will change again and you will wish that you could go back to feeling, "stuck."

Thank you for reading,
