Once upon a time, there was a young growing lady morphing into the perfect woman. She excelled in high school, college, doctorates, and even made first class. She got into a dream career right off the bat without any struggle. She did all of this. Without stress, ups and downs, had a great love life, and knew everything about herself. WE ALL KNOW THIS WILL FOREVER BE A FAIRYTALE.
Thinking about my life and my age it finally hit me… I’m growing up. Bills are a thought in my head to remember to pay, apartment hunting is a thing, the value of my car came up everything I went for a ride, debt stares me in the eye every time I purchase a textbook, and most obvious of all, my left ring finger tingled for the first time. Crazy right?! I mean jeez I’m only 20 years old. I’m 20 YEARS OLD!! A junior in college, and for a living I decided my first job ever would be assisting in saving a few lives while at work.
“I’ve found that growing means being honest. About what I want. What I need.What I feel. Who I am. – Epiphany “
I am now approaching the peak of my prime before everyone starts to tell you its going to go downhill from there. But why should it? If we do the math, I probably won’t be settled until I’m 35. But that doesn’t mean I can’t have fun and learn along the way. I think we can say this is the start of the transition to adulthood.
Let the stories began to flow as we make our journey through adulthood and many stressful decisions, heartbreak, being silly, and many thought-filled nights!!
