Today, at 11:08 am EDT, I turn 34.
Unlike when I turned 32, I don't have as many feels about it this time around.
Now that I'm well into my 30s I find myself to be in the midst of my 'third life crisis'--I mean, am I where I'm supposed to be? Should I own a house already? Be married with kid(s)? Have a job, earning lots of money?
Most days I feel like I'm just coping with things. This #adulting thing is harder than they lead you to believe.
Sometimes as things get to be too much, I take a deep breath and count the blessings I do have and reckon that life will get figured out eventually. Until that time, I will continue to enjoy travelling, the job I do have and being a hometown tourist with friends.
Happy Birthday to me!
Don't miss a post!
Yes - I have been through this same crisis. We may have the child on the way but I still don't have my career on track and we don't own a house. It is very difficult to be approaching mid-30s with none of these things in place. There is still time though!
ReplyDeleteBut isn't it kinda comforting to know there are others out there that know the struggle? Thanks for sharing.
