Being in your twenties

I feel like I’ve done a lot and yet I’ve done nothing.

I feel like I have my whole life ahead of me but at the same time I feel like I’m running out of time.

I feel like I could go anywhere and yet I have nowhere to go.

I feel like I could do anything, but I have so many things holding me back.

I feel like I am still young, but I feel so old.

I feel like I’m leaving my old life but at the same time I feel left behind.

Being in your 20s is a mixture of emotions that nothing could prepare you for. How am I possibly feeling all these things at the same time? It doesn’t make any sense. How can you experience two opposites at the same time?

I think that is the beauty of being in your 20s.

I think I have done enough to figure out what I need to do.

I think I am old enough to live the life that I want.

And finally,

I think I have lived just enough to still be excited about living in the unknown.
