Stumble upon life.


You have to have tactics in life, whether it is to plan out, placate or just to navigate through the small hurdles of life. But, what about if tactics aren't your forte? If that is the case than you just stumble around life. it is understandable to want tactics and pre-planning all aspect of life if you are a control freak or you have some sort of compulsive disorder that makes you be organized.

I find that stumbling around life is not such a bad idea, yes you can organize your daily life but I find lifes little imperfections quite attractive, mind you, I also like someone with a plan as long as that plan is flexible. however ones your plan become inflexible and take a life of their own, now that is when I find it hard to follow and disinterest.

Don't get me wrong, I am quite an organized person to some extent, and would never just expect things to fall in to place by their own accord. It is just the pre meditated life that I can't stand. where is the fun in that. if i knew every little thing down to the last detail i would just be so bored. Let me explain where this is coming from.

I had an interview and been asked where would I be in 5 years,(not where would I like to be in 5years). how on earth would I know where I would be in 5 years.
So I asked if they mean, where would i like to be? No. they say, where are you going to be in 5 years? Right! If I knew where i would be in 5 years (meaning i can predict life) surely i wouldn't be here to start with.

Surely I would be smart enough to predict the winning jackpot lottery ticket and have the foresight of winning it. or just be a nerd and predict some sort of nerdy thing that makes me heap loads of cash and make sure i don't sit an interview room with YOU.

Obviously, i didn't say that neither did i use that tone of voice, so, I just said i am hoping to grow career wise with the company and have a mortgage and all that responsible things that responsible middle age people have. Not sure if I nailed that interview but wait and see.


This whole start a new lease of life is sort of getting to me, as Ramadan is hard on it is own, i feel like i am adding to the pressure. Who knows may be i will stumble in to my perfect life, Aaah Right!!!.
