Life journey

One of my favorite pass-times (apart from stalking people on facebook) is going through random people's profiles on linkedin.com - to see where they started and what they are doing now. I do that constantly because it bolsters faith in myself and the path I am creating for myself in my life. (well, atleast attempting to)

Some people have a calling, they know they were meant to be a doctor or a designer or a scientist. I don't know, have never known what I wanted to be. I am turning 25 in two months and I have ideas about what I'd like to do for the next 5 years but beyond that - if you ask me, I'll draw a blank. And unfortunately, I haven't met many people like me. Sometimes it is scary to be different in that regard. Because it makes you question whether you are on the wrong path.

But linkedin.com provides me respite - I like knowing and seeing how people's career paths have traveled and where their careers have taken them. Life is too short to spend it not learning new skills, not discovering new interests and putting yourself in uncomfortable situations. And life also has a way of working itself out.Atleast, it has for all those folks on linkedin :)

So perhaps it will, for me too.
