Living an ideal life has been a normal thing among people these days and they become opposed to change because their ideal influencer or ideal life will always be threatened whenever they see an opputinity to grow, change and evolve to a better person.

I'm some it creates fear and anxieties because we want to live an ideal life, a perfect life and a life full of certainties whereas no such thing exist and because it doesnt exist we like to think it does thereby living in an illusion of an ideal life or like some would like to put it - living the dream(whatever that is).

To me I like to live life of uncertainty and being certain that whatever I do at a point in time is the best possible choice I could have made at that moment even tho I can see a better one now I don't have to live in the past and overthinking everything like life won't present itself in another way different from what I may know from the past. Either we want to change the past or live there, the present moment will always be what we have total control of.
