I will be turning 21 this month. I am in a point in my life where I am sort of drifting between homes. I recently moved from my hometown where I had recently lived for 20 years. Im from an Island but moved to Utah for College. Im going to college fulltime and working 17 hrs a week. I have moved quite a long way from home. I am living with most of my family (mom, brother, 2 sisters). I don’t necessarily like the location or the majority of the people (my opinion). Before I moved here I was extremely active, ate healthy, and was doing things in the sun all day. I have been here for 8 months but I suppose maybe im still going through a culture shock. But I feel I am just unsatisfied with my current living situations. People were energetic and upbeat where im from. Moving to a place where It snows and I barely see the sun its really draining and to be honest depressing. I have a girlfriend and shes planning on moving here to live with me. Of course I know im gona be moving out of the house soon and its not a problem for me. I lived away from my family once i turned 18. My only problem is I feel like im not being honest to myself and im not happy. I feel my mother is very judgmental when it comes to my choices in life. I feel like if I don’t graduate or continue going to school she will be disappointed in me. I suppose I feel a lack of support from her. I love her and everything but all she wants is for me to graduate college and work the rest of my life away. The point im trying to get at here is, when is it the time to fullfill ones dreams, goals? I know for a fact that most of the richest people have not even attended college. I know a so many Entrepreneurs that make an ok salary. Im a minimalist so I dont really care for material things. What makes me happy is being in the ocean. I sit in class all day listening to things im not interested in and none of the majors interconnect with my passion. I am paying thousands of dollars for classes that I don’t care for meanwhile living a unhappy life. I am extremely passionate about spearfishing/free-diving and it has been all i have been thinking about for months. I want to move back to my hometown into a place with my girlfriend, get a job, and continue following my dreams in the ocean. I have no problem living away from most of my family I just feel they will feel like im doing the wrong thing. Is it wrong that I want to do what I love? Why do I feel like everyone is bringing me down? I know I should follow my dreams and passion but I know my choices effect others. Is it wrong to want to do more? To do what I want? To be happy?
