My mind is blank right now. And I feel my stomach slowly churning. I'm fasting again and I choose to fast on Saturdays. It's part of developing myself and let myself think or ponder about work; ironically, it helps me get by at work. Work on Saturdays equals dreadful boredom. To be honest, I should be fasting from work. I've had too much.

There. I have some things to write now. Fasting helps me overcome mental blocks. I feel as if I have a lot of things to write whenever I fast. It gives me a hint of inspiration. Whenever I get dry spells in my mind, fasting can help re-ignite or refresh that perspective in life.

I've been assessing myself as an individual. So far, I've been reviewing my progress. There's nothing unusual and everything's pretty normal or decent. I could do better. I'm thinking of what I want to do in the future. It was time for me to realize that the direction in life is forward. I can't go back. But I also realized that I shouldn't concentrate on things that I don't like in life. Rather, I should concentrate on the things that I want.

A lot of teens these days suffer quarter-life crisis. They seem uncertain or dissatisfied with their lives. The uncertainty gives fear that maybe things would never get better, life is as good as it gets. It's fine. As long as you know what you want, you have a destination. The direction to go there lies in you.

It's time to go against the flow. Going with the flow sounds carefree and easy. But there's nothing wrong with that. However, if I don't like where I'm going where the current is bringing me, I should be strong to go against it. Make your own choices. Develop yourself. Learn. Experiment. Life is full of open ends and sometimes we fail to see creative solutions because we box ourselves in the room. As long as we have a destination, we can make it our purpose in life on how to get there.

Going there is simple. Don't kid yourself. Don't scare yourself. Try. Push. Pursue. We all have a destination. We all have dreams. Don't forget.

Set a motto in life. Perhaps one good deed per day? Write before going to sleep? Draw something everyday? No one said that we can't set course to only one destination. If it becomes a problem to choose of an ultimate destination, remove 'ultimate' or add (s) to destination.

Where's your destination?
