A Strange Place

I am at a really strange place at the moment, in 6 days I will be graduating with a Ba in Sociology and Social Policy. For as long as I can remember I have dreamt of going to University, learning amazing things, and graduating. But that is as far as my dreams have gone (aside from having children one day, and I'm fine with leaving that one for another couple of years). I am at a place where I am continually asking myself: What next? Is this really what you wan't to be doing? Are you sure you can handle this? Are you the person you want to be? Are you the student you should be? Are you the feminist you should be? Are you the girlfriend you want to be? Are you the daughter, the sister, the aunty, the friend you should be? And I am at a place where a lot of my answers to these questions are no. I am at a place where I need to embrace the uncertainty, 'walk like thunder"*, and realise that "I am exactly the person that I want to be." **
