My Mid 20’s

Oh my mid 20’s! It finally came, reaching the big “2-5.” A flood full of emotions! The first birthday I (*gasp*) wasn’t looking forward to. I sat and thought about how I didn’t reach my expectations, the life goals I planned out! Isn’t it funny how at such a young age we pictured what we thought would be ultimate success?

I’ve gone through the emotion and am still filling the hang over from the “what-if’s” and “could-have-should-haves,” but you know what? I’ve done some pretty awesome stuff in my day and I followed through on quite a lot. When, and if, you come to this reflection, yeah you can be sad for a second, but look at all the cool things you got to do that your little younger self would have thought was pretty awesome. For my 25th, I wanted to check out a place I’d been wanting to see for quite some time. It took a quarter of a century crisis to make it happen. But hey! I can say I’ve been to Portland and I’ve done some neat things on the way! Now here’s to another unpredictable, but oh so precious, 25 years!
