No longer quite young, but not yet fully grown, we find ourselves in a unique transition.
Some people are having the time of their lives.
Some are ……
super ambitious about building their careers
fighting to recover from illnesses
finishing their studies
planning to continue their education
struggling financially
dealing with family issues
preparing for marriage
dealing with breakups
Some have had their weddings called off
And some have just had a brush with death.
This decade is undeniably challenging, often feeling like everyone else is miles ahead.
Moving forward means braving intense competition.
Taking a step back brings the fear of judgment and whispers of failure.
It’s an age where circumstances force you to support yourself, and sometimes even others.
Yet, amidst the pressure, everyone finds their own way to ‘escape’ — a brief retreat to gather strength for the road ahead.
You sit down for a moment, stretch your legs, watch people going about their own paths, take a deep breath, and review how far you’ve come.
You write down your small achievements, and thank yourself for always hanging in there.
