So I am turning 30 today, it hasnt happened quite yet, but it will. My old friend use to say, "youth is wasted on the young." He actually use to say it to me since he was about 7 years older, so he was 30 when I met him. I never understood what he meant, until now. I am 30 (age-wise) but feel like I am still 25. It's the craziest thing how time passes so quickly.
My twenties have given me so so so much. They have made me laugh and made me cry. They have seen me graduate from college, get my first job, a multitude of interviews, have huge disappointments like not getting into med school (a blessing in disguise), a break-up with what I thought was the love of my life, finding the true love of my life....it has just been so much. All of this adds up to one simple fact. My twenties made me who I am today. It taught me what I would put with, who my friends truly are, that your family is seriously the best thing in this entire world, and that you are the coolest person you know. I feel like my childhood gave me the lessons to figure out my twenties and my twenties gave me the perspective to make the rest of my life great.
Thank you to my twenties, it has been one hell of a ride.
