Jubilee

Age vs Expectations & other dilemma

Here in my thoughts; like damn Ange in a few days you're having a jubilee, the idea of it is hitting right now, who would have thought twenty fine sounded like way to far, It's funny how when we're young society influenced us to set expectations with age as KPIs, at this age I was supposed to be having it all; a husband, kids and assets etc (this is the old normal richness we have ever known growing up but it's changing slowly...)

When you grow, you get wiser, you start defining and understanding yourself even better, you start realizing how things you thought were major are simpler because they don't speak to you, it gets harder when it comes to making decisions, sometimes you find yourself in a situation of compromising because why? growing can also suck lol

you start realizing that you want and deserve a new normal, your peace of mind becomes the most treasurable asset, showers of opportunities comes your way, sometimes you even get tired of the job that pays you but stick to it as it pays your bills why the feeling though? just because the work you're doing isn't fulfilling (ain't this fun and the way you were excited about that change man), you start becoming very conscience about your health, a flu worries you lots and body weight i can't even describe, My point is life doesn't have a formula today it goes south and tomorrow north you realize how you don't have control over anything except the food you wanna eat today maybe or maybe not, 

I am assuming that all these expectations we set by age are even the cause of depressions and anxiety, because i guess we're all struggling, beating ourselves up, comparing ourselves and fun fact it's not even something we have control over, it hits you. I have had several conversations with millennials and i was surprised with how they don't understand this depression thing that's hitting New Gen and I am curious why only us or is it even only us? but apparently several research findings indicates depression as part of Gen Z's characteristics and guess what they explain the role of social media in adding up more pressure to us, today you see your friend flexing in Dubai and you want that for yourself but remember that the energy you're putting into working for it is different and also the timing thing for self (today might be me but tomorrow might be you as well), also we prioritize things differently,

Anyways let me stop here, Life is beautiful man be grateful and enjoy this moment, eventually things shall fall into place. I am the strongest believer in this mantra of "what's yours is yours" (it will always find you no matter what) 




Here I am all grown and grateful for this life, family, friends and opportunities and more to come yeah it's just a start who could have thought that i would be the one to give you all this ted talk about life experience and all, one thing for sure is, LIFE is beautiful when less complicated and whatever you put on your mind and energy is always possible.


Happy early birthday to me☺
