Work in progress

Any activity started in life requires persistence to complete it. 

You cannot grow a plant without watering it, you cannot know the end of a story without reading it. Everything we use today, everything we see today is a product of someones or natures  persistence to complete the task and get result. Just like that we as humans are also work in progress. We cannot sit around and look forward to a result if we are not persistently working towards our goal. 

Alot of us have so many ideas coming in our mind. If asked about future we have plans about it as well. I want to go to this country, I want to build this big house. I want to become a specialist, I want to become a millionaire. Everyone is looking forward to a future they planned in their minds. As time goes by, some of us settle for whatever we get, some of us chase something bigger and some of us still struggle to survive. 

In this busy schedule where we are lost in the wonderful future we consistently plan in the back of our mind. We wait for a specific moment to move forward and do something. All this while, we ultimately forget the moment we actually are in.

As I started university 5 years and 9 months back I was waiting to be in clinical years, as entered clinical years I am waiting to graduate. As a year 1 student, I looked at seniors as they were like deities. I so badly wanted to be in the final year. Here I am, final year student and my mind has wandered off to future again. Not for a moment until I realized that I have appreciated the moment I am in right now. 

Right now I am living in the future I hoped for 5 years back. Just like me there are so many out there. You maybe not where you wanted to be in your longest term plan but you are somewhere the kid inside you wished for one day in the past.  Although, so many of us had wonderful ideas that they would have achieved by now. A family, a house and kids yet you're still single. Well truth be told, that sucks but yet again we are just work in progress. 

We cannot stay stagnant and hope to move forward at the same time. Yes, being not where we want to be is stressful and frustrating. There is not denying of our emotions on this matter. Although, while tangled up with so much emotions and frustration just take a break. We have to appreciate where we are right now. Even if it sucks for where you are right now. You are still alive, you are still breathing.  You still have time. You are a work in progress. Dont give up.
