It's Not The Crisis

I guess I've figured it out. You know how many people blame the Exsistential Crisis for all their stress and confusion? Now I know it's not it to blame. Surely I have those moments when I'm torn in between the I Don't Know What I Want and the All I Want Is Everything states, when I'm trying to figure out what I'm good at, what I want to do next. Does it stress me out? Just a bit. 
But when I think of what am I supposed to do, what my family would say if I do this or that, what society thinks of me, how successful I am really... That kind of thoughts overwhelm me to the point when it's hard to breathe. 
I've made an unpopular decision. I stopped my academic education. It's unpopular because in my family no one stops after Bachelor Degree. I've faced tons of criticism. My parents even decided to enroll for Major without my awareness. But I stopped for a reason. I finally have time to do everything on my to do/read/watch lists, all of a sudden I found a job that I like, I'm inspired to write and film videos once again. I don't feel that pressure any more(except that find a boyfriend and get married part). You know what? That feels great. I can finally look around and decide which way to go. All by myself. I don't know anything that feels better than this.
