uncertainties: a collection COLLATED BY CHETHA NAWANA
We never know what will happen tomorrow. We never even know what will happen in the next few hours of each day. We have so many questions and not enough answers. We make plans just for them to change. Life itself will always be uncertain, but isn’t that what we should love about it? The possibilities are always endless. But sometimes all we yearn for is confirmation that everything will be okay. That we’ll be happy and healthy and that all our dreams will come true.
back. Anonymous, 23. I feel like I have many uncertainties in my life that I wish I knew all the answers to. But to be honest, the beauty of life is this idea of not knowing. You have no idea what will be happening in a week, a month or a year, etc. Anonymous, 19. Whether I will be successful, not just career but whether I will be happy and content with my life. Anonymous, 20.
Do you have any uncertainties in your life at the moment? What do you wish you could confirm, if life was to be ever so generous?
Whether or not I can study abroad in Japan this year?! Anonymous, 20. COVID! Everything is really uncertain in jobs, travel, education and socialising. It’s changing so often that it’s hard to keep up to date. Ruby, 19. What I’ll be doing one year from now. Will COVID catch me if I go to Europe in the middle of the year? Clancy, 20. I wish the world would tell me if he liked me
My love life lol. Anonymous, 19. Will life, in particular uni, ever actually get back to normal? I feel as though I might never get the uni experience I was looking forward to for years and talked about by friends and family. Dacey, 19. As I approach my graduation, I feel very uncertain about what my life will be like in one year’s time. Where will I be? What will I be doing? Who will I be? Will I enjoy it? Rose, 21. My fit for Badger on Thursday. Anonymous, 18.
