Oh life, you’re so mysterious!

So here I am… approaching my twenty fourth birthday, like soon (ahhhh!) and I feel as though I’m “behind” so many of my friends- perhaps I feel this way because most of my friends are older and are already in long term relationships and have started their careers, and seem (at least to me) to be on the right path to happy and successful lives… and here I am- an Art student who’s “barista-ing” at the moment and am still finishing up my last two Math (general ed courses, ughh) oh and let’s not forget to mention that I’m single, still. I also am still not a hundred percent sure what I want to do with my life!
I thought all of these thing were real concerns you know? Things I needed to solve as soon as possible… but it’s stories, like the one I’ve posted, that make me realize life is too short to worry about finding the perfect job, the perfect man (still not totally convinced he’s out there…) right this minute! Really, all I can do is worry about the things I can control- like finishing school… being healthy (physically and mentally) and cherish all of the wonderful people in my life, make positive choices which in effect (affect? yikes!) will make my life thus more positive. I have so much to be thankful for and although sometimes I feel otherwise… I know it to be true! So to all of you who feel lost and unsure- know you’re not the only one! Let’s all be thankful for our beautiful lives and I hope you all have a lovely day!
