Although life is not meant to be a fairytale, why can't I have a jolly good crack at making mine out to be one?!

The Mid-twenties crisis
I have heard the urban myth that people have the mid-twenties crisis, and never thought it to be true. But today I think I do. This career path I have chose, I was so certain I wanted to take, but now I am not so sure. There are so many other things I have started wondering about. So many other opportunities that I could possibly take. Bad timing in this climate I know. And that is why I am trying to keep them all surpressed. I love my job at the moment, I really do, a great job, and great charity, and great colleagues. I love it, but something has to change. Maybe it isn't my job, maybe it is something else. My life is all topsy turvy at the moment, I am so close to sorting it, it is causing me to itch. No kidding, I am physically itchy! But something is really not right, something wrong, I have got to do something about it. I have to think about things properly, think things through, things that I thought i had sorted, maybe i haven't quite got there. I don't know. Any ideas anyone!!!!
And now as I sit here writing this, I have a complete nutcase kitten bolting around the flat... I am glad I am not the only one with insomnia. I am so sick of not sleeping. Grrrr. Ohhh the frustration. Mid - twenties crisis' - seriously, why on earth do we have them??? Are we on the right path? Is it the right thing to do? What if I could be doing something else right now? What is there that i could do better right now? So many questions, but where do you start to find the answers? Maybe Genie might have the answers, she seems to enjoy bolting round the flat like a steam train running down a hill without breaks, the lights are on but nobody is home at the moment!!! If only life could be as simple as that of my Crazy Wildcat Genie.

My advice is to give the itch a good hard scratch.
ReplyDeleteI like to call it the "quarter-life crisis" and I did it about 6 yrs ago (perhaps my life will be shorter than yours) ... It guided me to design and architecture, which I love ... The path of life takes many routes - some straight forward; some meandering; some branching off, dead-ending, forcing you to retrace and putting you back where you started, but eventually you end up where you're supposed to.
