Since the day I was born my whole life has been already planned. M future, my life, me destiny... I never had my own dream, thought everyone lived like this. Until one day, someone asked me what my dream was.. I was speechless at that time. What's this? Thinking out loud. The other person was laughing at me.. Maybe thought I was joking.
After that day, for the first time in my life I had my very first dream. I was flattered.. I told my parents about my dream, what I want in the future, but I guess it's impossible. I had to become someone who i didn't wanted to be. I now they want me to be successful, but they don't know that I'm unhappy. I don't want this career, I don't want this major, I don't want this job...... I just want to be happy, a simple happy life, but it's hard to be happy.
Slowly I started noticing something. I realized I was unemotional. Not was funny, bright, sad or surprising. Just emptiness. I wonder if everyone are the same??
I never get scared, happy, angry, surprised or sad. Just pretend as if I have emotions.
I know that emotions are the things that make us human. There must be people like me. How do you survive?
As if I'm a puppet without emotions letting my strings pulled by my parents....
P.S. they pull my strings, so I can't do nothing for myself. I always lose.

The sooner you move away from your parents and do your own thing the better. This is the bad way parents want the best for their children. By forcing them to do something they don't like. Life is a journey not a destination so you can have as many different jobs as you like throughout your life and you don't have to stick to what your parents want. Remember that. Tell them that.
