Plots of our lives

We can agree that every life story has its own plot where death is the ultimate ending. However, we might not notice that we have parallel plots along the way. Everything we experience has its own plot. Love, jobs, a house where we choose to live, or a city we grow up in or move to... Each plot has its ending that may coincidently match the main plot’s ending.

We might fall in love with the one and only and love lives till death do us part. Or it might be a shorter one where love leaves for varied reasons. What felt like your dream job once could turn into a monster sucking your energy, turning your life into a dull, dim, cold, narrow cell where you feel sad and plain. Before that happens, you should trust your intuition. Some people keep trying although deep down they know it’s a lost game. Some people stick to toxic partners hoping that one day a miracle will occur and they will fix their partner’s toxic traits!!! I don’t think that these are the kinds of miracles we should manifest for.

The good news is, just like a novel, there will always be a sort of foreshadowing giving us hints when the end is approaching. A good one is whenever and wherever you feel unable to be happy, drag yourself out of bed every day, stop enjoying the little things in life, or feel like nothing matters anymore, at this point you should pause and think, "Am I in the right place? Should I leave? Does leaving seem like a turning point that I’m too worried to experience?” If your answers are all "Yes," then you need to consider a change.

It’s a cliché phrase that “we only live once”; however, it will always be true. So, don’t waste your life in the wrong place.
