Move On

"Just move on", said one of my schoolmates.

That day in class, I have a concern about my passion and the process of moving towards what I wanted to do. I shared with him that it has been a very tough time for me and that I needed a chance and someone to recognise my passion. I would say that I'm already in the process of what I wanted to do but often, the path do seem so far away. At times, I thought going back to what I originally do, is so much easier.

That's when my friend guestured 'no' and said, "just move on". This schoolmate of mine, came from an engineering background and he told me he wanted to be more of a "people-person". That is why he is interested in studying Social Science after many years of working in the engineering field.

I thought these 3 words were so simple, yet it encouraged me to move forward again. The reasons for choosing what I am passionate about, came back flooding my mind. I do feel better, I do feel "on path".

Sometimes, being with people who will be honest with you, yet give the emotional support and encouragement we all need when the going gets tough, do helps.
