Maybe this is patience
You know you want it all different, but you also know wanting is not enough, and you have to admit that the decisions you are making are not working out, they are likely making things even worse.
You are not happy and you are looking for a way out. It's hard to admit but you got yourself in a complete dead end, maybe you want to consider wasting some more time going back, then look for a better path.
Maybe this is patience. You know well enough it feels like torture, but you know you can't make it all stop just like that. That's not what you should be looking for, because that is not going to happen.
Maybe 10 years of depression are acceptable, because you didn't have a choice. Maybe instead of struggling against the current until you drown, you could let it flow until there's anything interesting in sight.
You know what happens to people who want it all now : if they get it at all, it's bad. It's bad because they had to settle for what they could have right now, and there wasn't that much available for them to just scoop up.
After all if you're here with so little in your hands it's because you didn't want simple. You could have had simple and bad. Heck, you could even have had good, very good. But you wanted more.
It would be very hard to promise you'll get what you want one day. But if you can reach patience, I don't see how it would be of any bad consequence for you.
You'll die too young, whatever age that is. Because you know the Universe has billions of dimensions you'll never even imagine. You probably shouldn't live your short life trying to change that.
Thinking about what you want first. Before you start wishing for it. Before you start trying to find a way to get it. Before you try to get it. Before you fail getting it. Before you get something that makes you forget about it.
Too many people had a precious dream that never changed. A unreachable and unmovable stone of a dream. As they never got it they settled down for a sad replica of it, because it had to be it and nothing else.
There as to be something worth it. You are not the best thing the universe had to give, so you have to have something to look for. Just be attentive, curious, open-minded and patient, you'll need at least that.
Go then, there are other worlds than these.
