Why Should I Miss Out On Life For Something I Don't Even Know

Thoughts I was thinking yesterday how I wanted to pause everything I do or looking forward to do just because I have set my mind on something bigger that requires more attention. Then again I realise this is unnecessary. Why should I stop doing what makes me happy when it's the only thing keeping me sane? Why should I miss out on life for something I don't even know if it's going to come true? As Paulo Coelho said on his books The Alchemist "The secret of happiness lies in looking at all the wonders of the world and never forgetting the two drops of oil in the spoon.”
