The Journey Begins...
I never use to think of age as defining a person. That is until my 30th birthday began to appear on the horizon and rapidly approach. And as some of you are reading this you are probably thinking- what’s the big deal, 30 is still young. There is a small part of me agrees with you and in the grand scheme of life, you’re probably right. However, a much bigger part of me is having a hard time swallowing the simple fact that my twenties are gone and will become a part of my distant past.
Our society has taught us that our 20s are the prime age of youth. And mine are near their end. And as my 30th birthday approaches, I find myself thinking back to my "youth" and wondering how I became the person I am today. Sometimes I don’t even recognize my own refection in the mirror. I’ve been thinking about decisions made in the past, wondering what life would be like today if I had chosen another road or path to follow. Am I what I expected myself and my life to be at this age?
Writing/blogging about my personal journey towards "finding myself" is not going to be easy. So please be gentle in your comments! And let the journey begin…
