Future, something we all hope is very bright. We have heard so may times no one can predict the future or no one knows what is in store for tomorrow. Although, there are soothsayers and a few other people who claim can look into a crystal ball or something else and tell you what your future holds, it is of general believe no one knows what they have written for them in the stars.
I have tried as much as possible not to think so much about my future because after all, I can only plan and hope but besides that there is not much I can do about it. Thinking about my future also brings to my attention that I am no longer a child and as such I should grow up and start taking more responsibility. That scares me for some reason.
Lately, this has become something I cannot shake off. Maybe it has do with being in my final year of university where I am pursuing my first degree. I will soon have to choose what I do next with this life of mine. Do I further my studies, start a business, look for a job, or make hive my full-time job with a lot of dedication. It is a lot to think about.
I cannot predict what will happen next with my life because to a large extent, I have not even decided what I want to do next. To say in the next 2 or 3 years I want to be doing this or that would not be entirely true.
What is happening with my life right now?
Right now, I am in the first semester of the two semesters I have to complete before I graduate. Just yesterday, I made my proposal presentation on the project I will be embarking on for my bachelor’s degree. It is a requirement all final year students in Ghana have to fulfil which I aim I can carry out well. I hope by the year’s end, I would have graduated.

For the past 2 weeks, this has taken so much of my time and at least now that I have been able to make my proposal on my project topic I can take a breather and focus on some other school stuff and online stuff.
Aside school, I also have hive. Hive is going on well for me currently. Although I am nowhere near the goals I set for myself in terms of consistent blogging and engagement, I am getting there. Let’s see what happens now that I have one thing off my back. I try to live day by day and not think too much about tomorrow.
I am also trying as much as possible to live a happy life and not let things bother me too much. It is nice and good to live a happy life honestly. I do not think I have met someone who wants to live a chaotic life. I know I don’t.
How will these help me?
With the bachelor’s degree I am pursuing I know I have got options. I can continue with my masters, go to med school, start a job, look for one, teach, among others. At least at the end of my time in the school, I should be able to decide what I want to do.
The discovery of hive even settles me more because I know with a lot of dedication, I could make it on hive and make it my full-time job. Yes, I have read a few blogs where people use hive full time and are doing well. Being on hive full time definitely something I would not object to.
I believe I am developing my writing and reading skills with the things I am doing currently which could go a long way in helping me. I am also learning problem solving which I believe will help in the future.
What will happen to me in the future?
Like I have already said, I do not know what will happen in the future. Nonetheless, I hope and pray it is good and above all I just hope I am happy. I like to be happy and so I hope and believe there’s happiness in my future.
We have all heard of people who are doing jobs a lot of us would want to do but are not happy and I would not want to be doing something like that. I want to do be happy doing what I am happy because that is the time I can be of much help. I know that sounds cringe and all but it is what it is.
In summary, I do not know what my future holds but I hope it is good and I am happy.
Thank you.
