An alley in Madrid, Spain. Where does it lead to… I have absolutely no idea!

Madrid Alley

Yesterday, there is a moment that reminded me of this moment in the photo. It was a street that lead to nowhere. I asked, if we don’t know where we are going… shall we keep on going or do we just turn back around or simply just stay where we are?

At one point in my life, I was the kind of person that I must know “exactly” what exactly is on the other side of the road before I start walking. As much as I love walking, it would have been nice to know where I was walking to. Basically there is a destination… knowing exactly how far and how long it would take to get to that destination. However, now what? Now that we get to the “destination”, what else is there to do? Look for more destinations and give myself a new purpose in life?

Today, to some people, I seem to be lost and confuse because when they ask me what do I want and how am I going to get there… I can’t really answer them something that make sense to them because they want the answer that include how and where I am heading to. To me, knowing what I want is good enough and I will do whatever it take to get there… under the one condition, which is that I am happy doing what I do during the journey.

Let’s be real. As the majority of people would know by now that “Life is not easy”. Either we stay where we are or go back to where we were… our life is not going to be easier. So why not go forward on the route that we are actually “happy” while we are on our journey to achieve that objective of ours?

To answer that question I asked earlier… in my opinion, we shall keep on going on that street… as long as we are happy, let’s just keep on going and when we are tired, let’s take a break on the side of the street until we are ready again then get right back on that street and just keep on going.

Why? Because I don’t wanna stop.

What will you do? Will you stay, go back or go forward? Whatever you choose, make sure you are happy.
