If life isn't yours to direct, then whose is it exactly?

Hey, random late-night thought that's been bugging me lately—if life isn't really yours to steer the way you always assumed, then whose is it exactly? Like, growing up I just figured you make choices, deal with consequences, and that's that. But lately everything feels scripted or borrowed or something. Last month I turned down a decent job offer because it just didn't sit right, even though everyone said I was nuts. Now I'm still drifting, paying bills with odd gigs, wondering if I'm actually calling any shots or just reacting to whatever gets thrown at me. Kinda unsettling when you start questioning who’s really in the driver’s seat here.

Funny how the question of who actually runs the show keeps popping up in quiet moments. You see people hustling hard one day, then totally coasting the next, almost like an invisible current decides when the energy flows or stalls. I’ve watched friends chase one path for years only for something tiny—like a chance meeting or a random injury—to flip everything sideways. Makes you notice how much we pretend we’re fully in charge when really we’re just riding waves we didn’t create.

Man, that hits close. A few years back I went through this phase where I obsessed over every decision like it had to be perfectly “mine,” but the more I tried to force control, the more life just laughed and did its own thing anyway. Ended up realizing a lot of what I thought was me directing stuff was really just me scrambling to keep up with timing, other people’s expectations, random luck, whatever. These days I’m way more chill about it—still make choices obviously, but there’s this weird relief in admitting buy oral steroids online Whoseliveanyway maybe the bigger picture isn’t all on my shoulders. Feels less lonely somehow, you know? Like I’m participating instead of trying to own the whole game.
