The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be. ~ Marcel Pagnol

We'll see what happens...

Well...Today is the Day.  Its finally here!  I'll officially be thirty years old in a few hours! (I was born at 4:10 am on July 1).

I've been freaking out and at times felt a bit silly, but my feelings are justified.  I came across this article:

http://www.relevantmagazine.com/life/whole-life/features/22216-9-things-to-know-before-you-turn-30

Like this article says- "Life at and around 30 can be contradictory."  This completely sums up how I've been feeling.  There is so much I know, but yet so much I yearn to know.  I feel so accomplished, but at the same time, I feel as though I have so much more to accomplish and become.  I feel like such an adult, but want so much for my mommy and daddy to just step in and take care of me the way they did when I was a little girl.

I guess it'll take some getting use to the whole '30' thing. 

I've got a few more hours.....So, we'll see what happens:-)

  1. My sister and I are both in our 40s and still talk about when we grow up or what we want to do with our lives. How is it we still feel so young and everyone around us sees us as getting old? Hang in there and enjoy every moment!
