It is an illusion that you are stuck in such a place. Options and opportunities can not always present themselves to you when your motivations and
purposes do not permit for it. You already know the variables which have brought you to where you are in life, and on your path. I can see this
because you say "who can see my dilemma and the goals for which I've tried to pursue". This tells me that through your choice of words you
see the parrallel between your dilemma and your personal pursuit of goals. You do not differentiate between them. You did not state "my dilemma or
my goals", you used the word "and", because you see your dilemma as being the result of you pursuing such goals.
You may have decieved yourself into believing that the means to the end was important enough to justify the choices you have made, but yet you have
problems coming to terms with having to make such choices, or having made them, are not content with yourself.
Permit yourself to be honest with yourself. Did you truly have knowledge of all the pertinent variables at the time you made such decisions? Or were
the solutions all that you could consider at the time you made the choiced which led you to where you are?
You feel as though you are stuck in a place, but all places are what you choose to make them. You are the co-author of your own existance.
Is it divine or is it coincidence of having too much ambition?
Is there a seperation/difference between divine and coincidence? In order for divine to be divine, there is no coincidence, exept for in the mind of
an individual observer.
Is there a bright future at all for me?
Yes, there is. But, first you have to acknowledge why you did what you have done. First you must choose to know your own truth.
Advice:
Write in your own journal/diary. While you write in it, know, yes KNOW, that no one else shall ever read it. They are your words, to yourself, and
no one else. NO ONE shall ever read your words. And, know this as you write.
Why is it important to know no one shall ever read it?
Honestly answer the next questions to yourself, not me or any other contributor in this thread, but just answer the questions for you and you
alone:
Are you the same person with your Mother as you are with your child?
Are you the same person with your best friend as you are with your boss?
Do you exhibit the same personality traits with your neighbor as you do with your siblings?
Are we the same person with every individual we meet?
In many cases no. We wear masks, so as not to be un-accepted by those in our lives.
When you write in your journal with no expectations of anyone else
ever reading it, then is there any reason to wear any masks, decieve, or lie
to yourself?
You may endure writing some questions that have no forseeable answer that is a positive one.
If you can not conquer such ugly thoughts with an answer, then counter them with a question that negates the existance of such contemplation that the
original question initiates.
Sure, thoughts of yours may be dark, and you may be afraid to go to those recesses in your own mind, but how else could one gain control of one's own
mind?
The human mind (for the most part) is only consciously aware of 2,000 thoughts (electrical impulses between brain cells) per second.
While the subconscious mind processes 400,000,000,000 bits of information per second.
What is it that keeps us from consciously knowing 99.999999998% of our own thought processes?
As you write in your journal, and you gain the courage to conquer that which keeps yourself from yourself, you will begin to find the proof you
desire:
Is there a bright future at all for me?
What is it you seek? What is it you are looking for? Why are you here?
Is there a bright future at all for me?
Is it not up to you?
First you must find what it is that is within you, for i can not tell you, you would not believe me.
I will say this much, though:
It is not always what is in us that is what we are, but our deeds which define us.
I truly hope this helps, and i know that if you follow your own thoughts and logic to their end, doors shall be opened. For you are more than the
key, and more than the lock.......
