Stairway to heaven

Do you, like me, sometimes wonder if the steps you are taking in life are the right steps to heaven? I know how to get to my personal heaven but am I taking the right steps to get there? Life is throwing me some difficult choices lately. I started my master degree educationalist which is a lot like child psychology but more with the context (parents, school etc.) of the child in mind. I immediately had to choose if I’m going to start with my master thesis or not and which internship I want to apply for. I also want to keep blogging and work as a performer and door-host. I don’t want to give up my work as an volunteer at the child help line I work for. Last but not least is that I have to continue my work as a team-leader at the supermarket I work, to pay the bills. And social life, hallo? I want to do all but I can’t. Unfortunately a day only has 24 hours.

I was so afraid to make a choice that I tried to do everything. It got me to the point that I had repeatedly got migraine attacks. It was like I had to go through hell to get to heaven. Which was clearly not working. I love all the things I’m doing but doing them all at the same time isn’t fun. So I decided postpone my m-thesis and internship which immediately gave me some relief. I hope you’re not in the same situation at the moment. If you are, remember the following:

Don’t go through hell to get to heaven!
