Times are changing very quickly. I'll be 24 later this month, and while I'm still young it still feels like 30 is knocking on my door. I think about where all the time has gone because my life has changed to such a degree that it's hardly recognizable. When I first started going to college my family was whole, I had a brighter outlook on the future and an overall positive feeling. Within the past year my Aunt died, my father moved out of the house and that positive outlook has gotten a little murky.
I suppose this reflection comes from having a birthday soon. Like most people, I ponder certain aspects of my life. Mistakes and missteps glare you in the face while you realize that you still haven't gotten anywhere close to where you want to be, despite being older. I don't want to act like I'm 50 or anything, but thinking back to when I graduated high school I figured by this time things would be very different. I'm really not trying to actually be 30 and have the same feelings.
