Why should you consider leaving your current situation?
You will never understand the power you have as a person until you leave. Until you say, I'm done. And that goes for everything in your life. That goes for the moments where you realize the friends that you have around you, the friends that you grew up with, they're not supporting what you're doing. It's when you realize that the partner you thought was yours, your OTP for lifer, They are stuck in the same spot and they don't even realize it and they don't want to move. They're comfortable there and you're not. And it also comes down to like physical location. You maybe have grown up in the same place and you are getting restless. And maybe you have had a couple arguments now with your parents where it's like, dude, I'm 18. I'm going to be 19. I'm going to be 20.
I need to leave. And I am here to tell you that's not just you. You need to leave. You should leave. You should leave. Why? Why should you leave? Why should you leave something that seems pretty comfortable? Why should you go out and risk potentially having an experience that you won't like? There's no guarantee in any of it. There's no guarantee that if you get out of this relationship, you're going to find love again, which I don't know how being in a situation ship means love because truth be told, if he wanted to commit, he would have committed already. If she wanted to commit, she would have committed already. Let's stop kidding ourselves, please. There's no guarantee that the city that you're going to move to is going to solve all of your problems. It probably won't. You probably will end up in a city and realize, wait a minute, I have more alone time now. I'm not happy. I'm not happy. So with all of this, with also the loom that your parents are, they're not going to be around forever.
And honestly, when you leave home, you don't see them as often as you think you would. You see them a lot less. Why should you leave? It's because if you don't, you will never know. That's the honest truth. Now, don't get me wrong. If you feel like things are good and you are happy and content, stay. Stay like a dog. Stay. Because if it isn't broke, don't fix it. It's cool, you know? But if there is something that you know deep down is not sitting with you correctly and it's making you question things, and you can suppress it a certain amount, but then there gets a point where you're like, wait a minute. What if? What if? You have to. I mean, you don't have to, but you should. You should. If you are not fully convinced and like, I'm going to commit to this and I understand that there is going to be regret of other opportunities, but I don't care because this means the world to me. Then why would you not? Why would you not take that risk? Why wouldn't you just try it? Maybe it's because you're afraid of the person you're going to become.
Maybe it's because you're not ready for the idea that some of your preconceived notions about family, maybe about your life, about your capabilities, are going to change. And you're going to realize that you are a lot more flawed than you thought you were. Or you're going to realize, probably more likely, that you are way more powerful and way more able than you thought you were but again that doesn't that doesn't happen unless you just kind of try it unless you go out who would have thought I'd be out here you know like an astronaut in the ocean you know what you know about rolling down the deep when the brain goes numb you can call it mental freeze when these people talk too much put that in slow motion I feel like an astronaut in the ocean and I'm in the ocean right now chilling it's because I left it's because I left
I left my hometown because I was like, I need to. And I was so scared. I begged my parents to come home. I was like, I don't want to be at school. I want to drop out. This is not for me. And I'm so glad I didn't. And they low-key were like, we just paid for it. What do you mean? They were not happy about that phone call, bro. Oh, my gosh.
