“Not all those who wander are lost.” Yeah, classic Tolkien. But man, it slaps. People act like you need your whole life mapped out by 22, but sometimes just drifting around, figuring stuff out as you go, is exactly what you’re supposed to do. Wandering doesn’t mean you’re clueless; it just means you’re living, exploring, and maybe getting a little lost along the way (which, honestly, is half the fun). So next time someone side-eyes your “lack of direction,” just remember: even the best adventures start with a little wandering.
