How I feel about my age

Time is ticking fast and before you know it, it's already past midnight. Just like life, you often feel like it was just yesterday that you've been playing with your schoolmates, wearing uniform and getting excited going to school every weekdays. With a snap of the finger, you got back from your reverie and you realize that you are no longer the young child that you were before. You are already an adult, striving hard to live in the world you have dreamed of when you were a child.

It may seem like a sensitive topic, but I just want to share my deep thoughts about how I feel at this day with my age. Yes it is true! I am indeed a 28 year old career woman. Some people around my age would be at their home taking care of their child and husband, some are working hard for their dreams. And I can say that I am at the age of still trying to figure myself out and working for my dreams to come true.

Age is just a number but if you truly stop for a while and think about it, you find that it is something that you need to pay attention to. It is like the guide of your life and it is also relative to your dreams. Why? Because we are living. We celebrate our birthdays and we count our years. The more we age, the more we experience a lot in life. It is something that would remind us that we are no longer young like we were before so we better get our act up together and work hard to realize our dreams. The earlier we achieve our dreams, the longer we live with happiness.

So how do I really feel about my age? To be honest, I really thought that I would be building my own family and taking care of my child and husband. Before, I have really made up my mind of settling down at this age. But it is not the case, the time has changed and so as my priorities. Now, I am still working as a clinic nurse and earning money for my future. I feel like I really need to earn for a living and aside from that, I have to start achieving my dream. I feel that this is the time of my life where I have to enjoy and explore the world. I feel that this is the age where we truly have to be sure of ourselves and of our dreams. Yes, we can say that it is never too late for everything. But the clock is ticking! And we can never be really sure of the time and what awaits for us in the upcoming days, months or years. Thus, there is still pressure knowing how old we are now. We can not turn back time and we don't want any regrets in the future.


Note! Never procrastinate, start what you have to start as early as possible because you can never tell the time and when it is too late. Remember... You can't turn back the time!
