I'm at a point where what was 'my future' is slowly dissolving into 'my present'. Wonderful though scary. I would say that I am the type of person who first dreams, makes her dreams her goal, and then makes her goal her reality.
During the last week, serious soul searching has led me to map out my life. I know where I will be now. People say life can lead you to all different directions. I don't particularly agree. It doesn't fit with the above progression I have stated.
I have control.
Though here is what may seem to be an irony. I am a subjectivist but I am also an objectivist. I believe we exist as an individual and that we exist as part of a society. I believe we are free though are also deterministic (unconsciously driven towards goal-states..all of us).
How is this reconcileable? Answer: Bourdieu-an philosophy.
I have been born into an almost ideal 'field'. I've been brought up to value education, love, integrity, and character. I am now in a position to grab hold of these manifestations of my values. The cultural capital circulating around my world.
Sometimes I still wonder how everything has fallen into place. Sometimes I heuristically think its divine. But, no. Ultimately, I was born and I worked towards possessing the 'things' that I value.
