Purpose and Path

By on

It took me nearly two years to realize the difference between the two.
Purpose is the final destination.
Path is the road going there.
I've always been the goal-oriented type but sometimes I get engrossed with a certain path that despite the obvious humps and hazards, I still continue to fight my way forward just to stay on that path. Even if the path isn't anymore leading me to my original purpose. Even if there are safer and more pleasant paths in sight. 

I have journeyed on the wrong path for so long and have encountered more than enough troubles because of it. Now, all I really want is to quit and take another path--other paths that could lead me closer to my purpose. I know I sound trivial but don't worry, this isn't about medschool and being a doctor. Heeee.
 At this point, all I really want is to be at peace and to learn how to properly apply liquid liner on my upper lids. Promise, I didn't mean this to be overdone. :|

Aaaah, this will always be my comfort hymn.
 I'll be watching Serendipity tonight until I fall asleep. 
Sweet dreams, everyone! :) 


Much love,
Mela
