Another year older

Wow. I can't believe that it has been almost a week since my 28th birthday. Sometimes I feel like I am still 18. I wonder if this is because I recently became single again and go out more than I have in the past two years? Other times though... I feel like I just turned 50.

At times I feel so tired and worn out that I can't believe I am still in my 20s! :) Although, it does sometimes scare me that I am 28 and am where I am.

I am sure everyone feels this way at one point or another. Sometimes I think, I should be making better money, I should have my career, I should own a home, I should be married....

But then, I think... I'm so young and have come so far! I may not be making much money but I don't have any debt. I may not own a house, but I have a roof over my head (even if my upstairs neighbors pound on it all the time). I may not be married, but at least I have found through my relationships that they wouldn't have ended happily ever after.

I know I have a good life and I know good things will continue to come my way but sometimes I just think I am behind. I know I shouldn't feel that way, and I am really trying not to, but I am only human.

If I continue to work hard and stay happy, I think I will go far. I need to find my niche in my job life and I need to find a passion that will get me motivated to pave my path. :) I guess 28 is a good start to that path.
