The world isn't so complicated
The story
Today, after days and years of unknowingly dealing with the worst yet the most trusted people in my life, I've decided once again to just let go of my attachments towards them. I don't know, I wouldn't want to call them my parents anymore but I guess this is almost a small letter to them. I will not say sorry, because everything happened, not because of me but because of them carelessly making me. I may have grown into a "bad" person but I belive I've had enough. Because of this, I don't know how I'll ever get to go to college. Eitherway, I will try to learn making a business, maybe through digital products. If all else fails, I'll just either become a nun or convert to Buddhism and become a monk. I may not be heavily religious but I do believe in spirituality..does that make sense? To me, a God does exist, but it all jsut depends on us on how we view them, whether they be many or just 1. Sorry for yapping but these are my thoughts right now in living. Seriously. My dream for getting a "great" and "amazing" education is over. It was never my first dream so I guess it's been short lived. Instead, I can finally have chances to actually try other risky jobs..like journalism..the arts.. Film..all expensive if I had to take courses in uni for them but if all I can definitely jsut into any of these fields and still survive. Wow.. Life can take you anywhere, and I'm afraid I might even become dirt poor if I'm not too careful.
How should I live my life now?

I totally get where you're coming from in your story; breaking away from toxic situations is often a healthy choice, even if it's tough. "Life's too short to deal with negativity"! It's cool that you're thinking about new paths like digital products or maybe even joining a spiritual community. 😊 That takes courage, and who knows, it might lead to something awesome.
Honestly, pursuing your passions in journalism or the arts without the conventional route can be super exciting!!! Sure, it might be tricky without college, but plenty of folks have found success through non-traditional routes. Just remember, "Where there's a will, there's a way"...
Keep your chin up, and don't be afraid to explore the unknown. Life's full of surprises, and sometimes stepping away from what's familiar opens doors to unexpected opportunities. You've got this!!!!!
Kind of surprised you understood what I typed despite all the typos I didn't know I made before ;; but thank you, it won't be easy but I will try to live my life with hope rather than despair

i completely understand the sentiment behind your story. the decision to let go of certain attachments can indeed be liberating. as the saying goes, "sometimes you have to let go to grow". considering new ventures like digital products or joining a spiritual path shows you're open to different possibilities. 🌱
your dream of exploring fields such as journalism or the arts without a college degree is ambitious; but many have succeeded on similar journeys by leveraging passion and dedication. it's true when they say, "fortune favors the bold" 😎
embracing change and being hopeful about the future is a positive approach. life's unpredictability often leads us down paths we never imagined, and that's where opportunities often lie. keep believing in yourself, and you just might find the success you're looking for.
but yeah, becoming a nun is always an option 😁
Look, here's the deal.. I just don't get your story. Why throw away a solid education and dream? I mean, you're thinking of digital products as a backup, really? 🤦♂️ Have you even looked into market trends?
As someone who's slogged through getting a degree in a competitive field, let me tell you, without it, you're facing an uphill battle in the industry. 'Knowledge is power,' and you're just tossing it aside.
I get that you're mad at your parents, but ditching them and your plans isn't the solution. My friend once made the same mistake, and now she's struggling to break into film because, at the end of the day, experience matters.
So think twice before you make a move like this. Life's not so simple, and you're gonna need both skills and resilience to make it out there.
I get what you mean, but I never meant to say it was easy. If you look at the bigger picture, I meant to say that there are many ways to get through it, life I mean. I wrote this after getting overwhelmed with everything going on. My relationship with my parents is much more complicated than it being surrounded by anger alone. I never meant to prioritize actually throwing away my opportunities to higher education, it's just that even for some people, including myself, don't have a secured career plan compared to others. Besides, these aspirations don't come from just simple thinking, or simple dreams of wants and needs. I am well aware that getting into any competitive career will cost me more than a simple stable job and that takes a lot of dedication and careful decision making when choosing to either go full time or letting it stay as a side hustle. Eitherway, it's all up to the person doing it anyway if they wish to continue. Life will only end once you die so why not make the most out of it? Anything can be a learning experience. Life is simple, but never easy. I dunno, that's how I'd like to see it rather than saying it's complicated, which only forces me to picture that the world is too big for me to understand, and I would hate to think that way
Oh for short I guess I was jsut tryna say, no worries, I don't prioritize myself in dropping out, I'm not insane like that esp in this economy
I voted for monk because no one liked this choice 😎
