Contemplating My Future

I sometimes find myself wondering off at the oddest times daydreaming about my future. I have always found it difficult to stay in the present. I think I have such an overanalytical mind that thinking about my future makes me feel like I have some measure of control over my life, when in reality, most of the time I don't. Not in the sense that my life is spinning out of control. More in the sense that one never knows when one's life will end. It's a more existential way of thinking about my life. I also believe these recent daydreams have been brought on by this being my last semester in school and all the uncertainty that comes along with that. I just feel like my life is changing everyday right underneath me. While in many ways I welcome these changes, it no longer feels like the future, it feels like the present. The days of wondering what I will be when I grow up, like I used to do as a child are over, and now I am grown up.
