I figured by 24, I'd be finished with school, in a great job, possibly engaged, or married.... and I'm not. I'm still in school, not that it's a problem. I do have a good job, but it's not so much a career yet. I'm not married, engaged, or even dating. Have I failed myself? I don't think so. I think I've realized a lot about my life. Some of those goals were unrealistic. To assume that you'll have your life figured out by the time you're 24 is unrealistic in a sense.
I think straight out of high school, I figured everything would be really easy. I figured: School will be a breeze, money's not a problem... but when reality hit, it hits enough to make you ponder a lot things, even second guess at times.
I'll be 24 in a couple of months, and I see my life as a new page. I just got out of a long relationship, very painful breakup and being alone terrified me. It was extremely hard on me. I'm beginning to heal though. Now I see it as an opportunity. For myself. To better myself, to work hard, and put myself where I need to be. I hope you'll join me for this journey.
