You’d like life to be a party, wouldn’t you? So much excitement and willingness to face the unknown, however, needs to be balanced with a little rationality and maturity – two qualities you have to work hard to acquire.

Dreaming is good, but anxiety and naivety are your enemies right now. The real world is full of dangers that you won’t be able to defeat, even wearing your fantasy-character armor. Willing to take the risk to discover and explore, you tend to deny reality and may end up getting involved in regrettable situations, only realizing your error when it’s too late.

Remember: while tasting the flavors of life can be delicious, you need to learn to identify which ones really serve you and are good for you. Accustomed to constant experimentation, you have great difficulty in accepting the advice of those who have been where you are today, which ends up with you taking long torturous paths out of sheer stubbornness. The fac tis that this often hurts you and poses difficulties that could have been avoided if you put your pride aside and listened to the words of those who, out of love for you, just want to prevent you from repeating mistakes that have already been made.

Ejioko’s Shadow Meditation: Even though life is good and happiness is my journey’s destination, how often do I confuse joy with a lack of seriousness, taking people and situations for granted while refusing to assume responsibility for what I say and do, as a child that never takes no for an answer?
