In a couple of days, I will turn 25!
This is quite incredible to me, but at the same time I feel like it's about time. I can't believe how much time has flown over the past years. It feels just like yesterday I was bemoaning the fact that my 17th birthday was approaching. And now it's 25. One of my quirks is that I do not like the odd number ages as much as the even. I don't know why, lol. It just irks me, but 25...j'adore ca. It's such a rounded age. It's grown up, wise (with room for mistakes), definitive. I love this age already. I'm trying to remember, where I imagined my life would be at this age when I was much younger, but nothing specific really comes to mind. I am more the flexible kind who takes life as it comes, deals with it and moves on. I learnt this when I was about 12 and realized how much I hated the mention of diseases, blood...anything medical. Prior to that my lifelong goal was to become a doctor. Ha! Talk about revising of future ambitions, no need forcing that medical route.
I love where my life is right now. I had my quarter-life crisis earlier. Thank goodness! My crisis saw me reevaluate life, apply to grad school in France, get accepted, quit my job and begin this amazing journey. This has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself and regrets I have none. More important than knowing what I don't want out of life, I know now exactly what I want (ok more like big picture becoming more defined :)). The words to this song comes to mind and it mirrors the mood I've been in lately. I'm definitely not perfect right now, still a few elements needed...ahem a man! But i feel pretty darn blessed right now.
Count your blessings name them one by one
Count your blessings see what God has done
Count your blessings, name them one by one
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done
