I don’t know how many countless people identify with this one line… “It’s my life ….”
As a teenager “It’s my life” is all that I wanted to tell people who wanted to influence my choices about what I felt strongly about. As life moved on things changed. Perhaps somewhere deep down the meaning of that “It’s my life” shifts. It becomes less selfish. It’s a life of our choices certainly but do people closest to us realize this? The pandemic made me think harder about this one life.
Two individuals, in a relationship, it’s their life so let them be. A single person making his or her choice let them do what they want to …. it’s their life they need to experience the choices they make. Yes, sometimes the emotions can be overwhelming but don’t we in this journey called life, experience this once at least. So make your one life yours completely doing what you really want to do and let people who truly love you understand that and support you unconditionally and not judge you. Let their experiences not hinder the one life you have left yet to experience completely and it just may be a more fulfilling life. The road leading to my life truly is difficult and rough. But do you want to live it any other way? Think hard? All stakeholders in this journey of my life are important but like Bon Jovi sang inspired by Sinatra.
This ain’t a song for the broken hearted,
No silent prayer for the faith departed,
I ain’t gonna be a face in the crowd,
You are goonna hear my voice when i shout it aloud.
Its my life its now or never !!!
