#2 UMBRÜCHE | 50

Writing this thought down, I felt the need to do it in German. It is about those times in which you eagerly work towards a certain aim, whilst knowing that you’ll have to wait for that change in your life. You know it’ll come one day. But it’s not there yet. Hence you continue with your life the way it is. And all of the sudden you fear: What if I, whilst waiting, forget what it was that I was waiting for? What if I lose my aim while on my way?

Those moments remind me of “The Alchemist” by Paul Coelho. This book made me think about my past, about my ambitions and the reasons and motivations I’ve had when I started my journey. I wonder if I got lost on my way. I wonder if I’ve lost sight. But as Coelho says: “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”

I’ll just have to remember what it is that I wanted. When I was 17 these were my dreams (in German).
