I’ve been 30 for one week and I am at the crossroads of ”oppurtunity!” and “my life is falling apart.” I had a minor inconvenient birthday experience and slept through all milestone celebrations. I could say it’s feeling bleak right now but thats the joy of what life can be!

i don’t know it this is a rec or anti-rec, but i’m turning 30 this year and it feels so surreal. like where did the time go?
i’ve always been excited to turn 30. 30 year olds have their shit together right? (lolling at myself right now.)
anyway, i’m still hopeful that this is going to be a good year, even though it’s starting off a chaotic mess.

I’ve taken some time to think about this, because so much I could say feels circumstantial. But here’s what I’ve come to:
I’m still technically early 30’s, but one thing I’ve noticed from myself and friends is a higher level of intentionality. There is an inherent drive to deepen bonds that are worth it, and moving energy away from those that are draining. In order to do that, you have to be intentional about building those connections. All my friends are busy, myself included, so we carve out time to spend together and make sure that happens at least monthly. I actually host a monthly game night which is intentionally very laid back and an opportunity to just have fun, because I know we all need it! I still make connections with new people, but there has to be a little something there for me to put my time and energy into creating something more.
I also found my focus shifting from short term to long term. That was uncomfortable for me. While I’m still a very in the moment person, I started actually thinking about how I wanted my life to look not just right now, but years from now.
It’s true that you’ll get a lot of clarity on who you are. I just am who I am, and I’m not trying things out anymore. That doesn’t mean I’m not open and curious and playful, but at my core I’m solid. Either people vibe with that or they don’t, it’s not personal to me. I don’t need to be liked by everyone, and I don’t need to like everyone.
Working on yourself is essential. We all have issues, most of them aren’t our fault, but it is our responsibility to work on them. We also all have core issues that will never fully go away, but can get better. Healing is a spiral and we’re never fully done. Life is healing, integrating, enjoying the new level, then leveling up again!
My 20s very much felt like a portal and now my 30s are feeling like a much different kind of one. Welcome to the club and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! 🥳

I’m looking to challange myself in this coming year to step outside my comfort zone. Remind/Reawaken the inner 19 year old who was spontaneous and took risks! Maybe I’ll
finally start writing that book, take up dance again or just have fun and remind myself that it’s all about feeding the inner child!

… honestly just not it. I didn’t buy them but I knew something was up when my brother pawned a large jar of them onto me suddenly.. asking “do you like pickles?” of course I do what kind of question is that.. I now understand there are pickles that I dont like.
