Maturing delightfully
like a delicious fine wine is a special treat in the unfolding for most women.
When you’ve
spent most of your 20s living daringly, spontaneously and wholeheartedly,
you’re going to enter that big THREE-OH (30) feeling like you’ve blossomed and
advanced to a whole other level. Mark Ms. Carrie Bradshaw’s words that, “Your
20s are to make mistakes, your 30s are to learn the lessons and your 40s are to
pay for the drinks.”
Of course
there is always an exception to the rule, but wreaking havoc in your 20s that makes
for great stories is SO worth it when you have the luxury to do so because you still aren't one-hundred percent independent.
We may think
that we've gotten to where we’re at because of our own successes, and yes our
accomplishments have helped us get where we’re at, but the majority of our life
we have depended on some kind of help and support growing up and it isn't until
perhaps our mid-20s when we become more on our own.
Live it up,
lighten up and seize each day because at the end it’s not so much about your
chronological age that will determine how much fun you’re allowed to have. You
are allowed to have as much fun and happiness that you allow yourself to have.
It’s never too early or too late.
BUT, getting
older definitely does mean becoming more aware of what you want because you've
had a lifetime of contrast that made you expand and propel towards what you
really want. It's awesome knowing that
we go through a continuous metamorphosis and we shed off old misconceptions and
naive mindsets while at the same time feeling more complete than ever.
And this is exactly
why I'm so grateful that at 28 I'm still not married and don’t have kids because
I’m very free-spirited, adventurous, daring and being only responsible for
myself means that I can be selfish and completely free to make my personal development my
main focus. I want to be in alignment with myself so much that whilst I reign in
my region of bliss I’ll be rendezvousing with like-minded people where we’ll be
thrivin’ and flowin’ and only good things can come of this, no doubt. I’ll be
more aligned to what I want because I’ll be what I want in someone else.
I've also
learned that when you’re feeling good and content with life, you’ll be more at
ease and you’ll instinctively be picky. You’ll
be picky about your thoughts because you’re going to choose the best feeling
thoughts now and you’re going to be picky about everything in general and go
ahead and be picky! You should be able
to place an order to your liking (literally and figuratively) and then wait for
it to arrive. You’ll come across other offers that may oblige you to sacrifice,
but don’t conform and just keep having
fun on the way without losing the certainty that what you ideally and exactly
want exists and is on its way to you because life only gets better and
better. ♥
