So I turned 25 a few days ago...
& I feel like a bunch of wisdom just like, dropped out of the sky and into my heart. I was in the shower, talking to myself because, well, who doesn't; and I started to reflect on my life. I thought about literally EVERYTHING. Old friends, new friends, old guys, new guys, family, school, my job...everything. Then I just had the brilliant idea to start a freaking blog about my life. So many of us quarter lifers are at this stage where we have it all figured out, but we don't have it figured out at all, AT THE SAME DAMN TIME. Like, how confusing is that? To know what we want, but then still not be sure if that's what we really want. Or to know what we gotta do to get where we want to be, but like, not really FEEL like doing it because "who knows if it'll work out anyway?" This has to be the absolute weirdest, most bizarre stage in a young person's life. So I've decided, to use one of my many talents, writing, to talk about it. Talk about my day to day struggles, thoughts, happy moments, head-scratching moments, the things you might be going through but feel like you're the only one in the world who feels that way. You're not. It's a whole squad of us on this same ride as you. Let's virtually go through it together. You can message me as well as subscribe on my "Message Me" page!
As my man DJ Khaled would say, follow me on the road to success. A very confusing, bumpy, trippy road. But a road I'd love to share with you <3
