I'm not generally one of those people scared by age. I never considered myself vain. But in just over a month I will leave my 20's behind, and it is scaring the crap out if me. It's been difficult not to look at turning 30 as an end, rather than simply the beginning of a new chapter. Saying goodbye is always hard, especially when the last 10 years hold the most memorable moments ( good and bad) of my life to date.
There are things, though, that my 20's did not bring , things I still hope for, things that WILL come. Like the Cubs winning the World Series, or a woman being elected president. But I'll stick to the things I have some control over.
And that's what I have come to realize, there is still time. There is still so much to look forward to, to accomplish. After all 30 is not old. I mean, it's not 40, for crying out loud! (just kidding)
So in honor of my 20's and ushering in the new decade, it's time for Thirty before Thirty in Thirty. Thanks to Nelly for the idea to blog it all!
All I have to do now it come up with 30 items, do one a day for 30 days, take lots of pictures, and write about it all!. I have been given a few great ideas, came up with some myself, but am going to have to dig deep and narrow it down.
Suggestions Welcome!
