In 7 months I will be 30. How I pictured myself at 30, isn't who I am. I am thinking, maybe it is time to grow up, act like a 30 year old. I attend a university with students 5-10 years younger than I, and many people have stated that they do not see me as 29. I am not sure how to take that. A compliment because I have youthful looks, or an insult that I am not living the life a typical 30 year old lives (kids, career, husband), or exhibit some immature qualities. I have realized that my age is a source of strength (life experience), as well as an insecurity.
There are some things that I feel that I need to be more responsible with ie. money, getting my priorities straight, work more often, take more lead, work harder at school. So that I can become that 30 year old, that people 5-10 years younger than me can tell that I am mature and independent. Maybe i should change my personal discourse from 20-something, to 30 year old and act my age.
As many of you have probably gathered that my age has been a concern, and insecurity in some of my posts. Forgive me if this is repetitive, I just needed to vent. Did you ever have a point in your life where you decided 'perhaps, it is time to grow up?'
