Today, I wave goodbye to my twenties…
In my twenties, here’s just a few of the things that happened:
- I came out.
- I got two degrees.
- I fell in love (a few times).
- I got engaged (to the most recent, and most important love).
- I bought a house.
- I got a dog.
- I got a real job, more than once.
- I got lots of tattoos.
- I fought depression.
- I learned how to deal with my family; learning which ones to keep close (those that mean the most, who have always stood by me; like my cousin and grandma), and which ones I unfortunately have been forced to let go of.
- I learned a lot more about what is really important in life.
- I left the state I grew up in, and made a life somewhere else.
- I made a lot of friends, many of which I know I will remain friends with for life.
- I traveled to other parts of the world.
- I went back to school… again.
- I grew up.
Wow… it seems like I did a bunch of cool stuff in my twenties… but I am sure that my thirties are going to be jam packed with new adventures and “achievements” as well. I turn thirty tomorrow, so I can’t wait to see what this next decade has in store for me. As Captain Picard would say (nerd alert!)… set a course, number one… now, engage… thirties, here I come!
