Being Twenty-something… It's when you stop going
along with the crowd and start realizing there's a lot of
things about yourself you didn't know, and may not even like. You start
feeling insecure and wonder where you'll be in a year or two, but
then you get scared because you barely know where you are now.You start realizing that people are SELFISH, and some of those
friends you THOUGHT you were so close to, aren't exactly the
greatest people you've ever met, and the people you've lost touch
with, are some of the most IMPORTANT ones. What you do not realize, is
that they're realizing this too, and are not really cold or catty or
mean or insincere, but they're just as confused as you.You look at your job. It's not even close to what you thought you'd be doing. Or maybe you're looking for one, and realizing that you'regonna have to start at the bottom and that's a scary thing. You miss the
comforts of college, of groups, of socializing with the same people on
a constant basis. But then you realize that maybe they weren't so
great after all.You're beginning to understand yourself - what you want and do not
want. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are
doing and find yourself analyzing a bit more than usual because suddenly you realize
you have certain boundaries in your life, and have added things to your
list of what is acceptable and what is not.You are insecure - and then secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest
force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly
change is the enemy and you try and cling onto the past with dear
life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further
away and there's nothing to do but stay where you are and move
forward. And then change doesn't seem all that bad.You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do
such damage to you, or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet
anyone decent enough to get to know better. You love someone, but maybe
love someone else too, and you can't figure out why you're doing this
because you're not a bad person.One night stands and random hook-ups start to look cheap, and getting
wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go
through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with
your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a
decision.You worry about loans and money and the future and making a life for
yourself, and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd
just like to be a contender! What you may not realize is that everyone
reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst
of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.
