I feel as though as if I've reached an impasse in my life.
I have goals and ambitions. I enjoy school, but I want to dive head-first into my career field. I envy those who have the freedom of mobility.
I seriously never thought that I'd be this old. I mean, sure, we all talk about what we're going to do when we're older. We can talk, we can dream, we can leave it to conjecture, but until we've reached that age, talk, dream, and conjecture is all it is.
I've reached an age where it's no longer taboo for people whom I have graduated from high school with are now married and starting families.
I honestly don't know how I feel about this. I can't cling to the past simply on the basis that that was the status quo; you talked about getting married. You talked about having children. But at the same time, I'm finding it more and more awkward to embrace the now and the future.
We'll see how it goes. For now, I'll just keep on doing what I've been doing.
