James Baldwin speaking
“I am anti-Zionist. I don’t believe they [Jews] have the right, after 3,000 years, to reclaim the land with western bombs and guns on biblical injunction. When I was in Israel it was as though I was in the middle of The Fire Next Time.” James Baldwin, 1970
"But the state of Israel was not created for the salvation of the Jews; it was created for the salvation of the Western interests. This is what is becoming clear (I must say that it was always clear to me). The Palestinians have been paying for the British colonial policy of ‘divide and rule’ and for Europe’s guilty Christian conscience for more than thirty years." James Baldwin, 1979

I think being afraid of becoming 25 can be combated by like literally hanging out w people of all age groups and realizing that they too have personalities and hopes and dreams and goals and life is not over for you at like 30
I am so inspired by my doctor employer’s wife who’s 52 but took up running as recently as 5 years ago and is now the fittest she’s ever been …… like looking at her I always thought she grew up this way but she decided to make this lifestyle change arbitrarily in her 40s and it literally worked great for her like there is no limit on deciding when to change something
Also realizing that the domestic route is outdated too and women are doing literally WHATEVER they want rn is so freeing…. Idgaf ab celebrities but it’s still nice seeing the new artists popping up being 25 and up bc for your early 20s to be your peak is SO sad like it’s peaking in hs but repackaged we need to get a grip
Also incredibly inspired by all the whimsical & fit patients I see. Saw a 82 year old LADY today who could easily pass for 50 and was telling me all about the new trainer she’s working w now, and it’s helping her go to the gym more. And she literally gossiped to me about how cute he was . Also cannot forget about the patient I saw today too who’s a PA and told me not to worry about age bc he literally went to school at 40 and changed his whole life. Hes 72 and so funny and spry like I used to dread reaching those ages but looking at those ppl and how healthy and happy they are I know its so possible
Shoutout to ppl 25 to 35 who are seeing all the people around them give up bc they feel “too old” to try anything new btw …… like you inspire me SO much bc of you I have sm to look forward to
35 here. The 30’s have been absolutely wonderful and I don’t regret the course of my life at all. I was a bit sad and lost in my 20’s, but I think instead of that seeming like a doomed cause, we should let folks BE sad and lost in their 20’s. I didn’t have ANYTHING figured out until the end of 2023 when I decided I’m going back to school for what I WANT to be doing. I’m working through college at 35, about to start a 2 year associates, and I’m so thrilled that things can still be new and exciting and that my life wasn’t set in stone so early. I NEEDED to explore my life as an adult before I truly knew what I wanted for myself. I NEEDED to make mistakes. Big ones. I NEEDED to figure out who I was once I got past the drama of being a young person with the world watching me, wondering what I would do.
I, too, started running again this past year. I started learning how to play the drums for the first time in my life. I experimented with different routines until I found one that stuck and works really well for me. My style has changed again and again. And it’s all so exciting.
If you’re in your 20’s, just breathe. Your very best days are ahead of you, you’re so, so young and you will have such an exciting life, and SO many opportunities to change your mind if you want to. You’re doing great!
