16. Identity Crisis
Sometimes, when people feel that their life lacks structure, that everything is
out of control, that they haven’t attained everything they thought they should - a
good job, a university degree, a family, or their marital status is still single, they
have an identity crisis. “Who am I? And why aren’t I where I thought I would
be?”
Society doesn’t permit people to see that you don’t need to be the same as
everyone else in order to be happy. You are unique, original, there is no one
else like you. Not every life plan is identical - we are all different. Success and
happiness come in many different shapes and sizes. Can you verify this?
