My road to success…

Dear diary,                                                        Saturday July 11th 2073

It’s been 80 years that I’m writing to you, but this time might be different. Since I’ve been thinking about my past life I realized how false my perception of success was. When I first undertook my life road I had only one idea in mind … I wanted to be an architect. Witch I thought would bring me the happiness of the world and would satisfy my successful desire. People would tell me, I’m wrong… And so I was. I  had traced my life as following; I graduated from college, then university, I did three years for my stage, I got married , I had a girl and started working very hard, without taking care of myself and my needs. I started at that time looking for something that was missing in my life, maybe it was the real happiness, but at that time I was too blind… blind by the opportunities of work… blind by my future plans… blind by the fact that I still didn’t feel myself successful.

 

I’m now on my way back from Palestine. It was a great trip, stressing, yes! … but a very nice experience. Now a hundred of Palestinian children will benefit of the orphanage that we just build.

When people ask me “Did you followed your dreams?” I would say yes, but when they ask me 
“Do you consider yourself successful? ”, I would just stare at the sky, and wonder if so… And like usually my thoughts would take me back to the first time I undertook my road to success…
