As of a few days ago, I have come to a realization that I must face a certain life-changing decision.
Either I take a left turn, and be what people expect me to be, but not be free to do whatever I wish, or I take a right turn, and “head for daylight”, in which I can do everything i’d like to do and not follow any expectations.
If I take a left turn, I will continue what i’ve done up ’till now, being who i’m expected to be [in the present and in the future].
If I take a right turn, i’ll be free to do as I wish, but I may disappoint some people in my life and possible have our connection “broken”.
So to speak, if I take a left turn my true want of what i’d like to be will not “shine” due to lack of daylight, but if I take a right turn it will shine but may cause some people i’ve known to stay on the right side, as they may not be able to accept the/”survive” in daylight.
I know some of you will understand my crisis here, and some will not. If you do understand, please talk in “clues” as I did without uncovering any details.
(My avatar is partially in the dark, which expresses my current status: in the dark, but willing to step out of the darkness and head to daylight.)

Two news for you. Yes, a good one and a bad one….
Good one first. This is normal. We all find ourselves on the crossroads like that. And yes, it is coming somewhere ’round your age.
Bad one. This is not the last situation of that kind. Actually, they are coming every now and then.
Whichever road you go, it will have its good and bad consequences. There is nobody but you who has to weight the both sides and choose. Whatever you decide, please, don’t forget it’s your life (*trying to stress this*) YOUR LIFE you are deciding upon. And, as far as we know, you have only one. And it’s only you that will live it from the beginning to the end.
Thank you for your warm and helpful advice. I’ve actually figured this out with my sister, which is my best friend.
However, your advice helped me too and I gladly appreciate assisting me with something like this when my other friends won’t *COUGHvintcodieraulstormdanielCOUGH*. Again, thanks.
