Fight For Your Future

Do I really have a future? Is the future I imagine just a figment of my imagination? Should I surrender my future to the dictates of life’s pressures? Is all the talk about a great tomorrow just another hope and inspiration stuff? As a young kid, you dreamt of becoming this and that. You had people you greatly admired and wanted to be like them when you grow up. You had certain professions you liked and promised yourself you will pursue those professions when the time comes. You then went to school, got a few certificates under your belt, started working, got married, had children, traveled the world, did several things, and here you are. For whatever reason, you have taken some detours, changed your mind regarding the direction you wanted to follow and now you are wondering, is the future I envisaged going to come to be realized? You are not alone. Here is what I know, if you want to know about your future, you must create it and you have to fight for it.
