âThis is the thing: When you hit 28 or 30, everything begins to divide. You can see very clearly two kinds of people. On one side, people who have used their 20s to learn and grow, to find ⌠themselves and their dreams, people who know what works and what doesnât, who have pushed through to become real live adults. Then thereâs the other kind, who are hanging onto college, or high school even, with all their might. Theyâve stayed in jobs they hate, because theyâre too scared to get another one. Theyâve stayed with men or women who are good but not great, because they donât want to be lonely. ⌠they mean to develop intimate friendships, they mean to stop drinking like life is one big frat party. But they donât do those things, so they live in an extended adolescence, no closer to adulthood than when they graduated. Donât be like that. Donât get stuck. Move, travel, take a class, take a risk. There is a season for wildness and a season for settledness, and this is neither. This season is about becoming. Donât lose yourself at happy hour, but donât lose yourself on the corporate ladder either. Stop every once in a while and go out to coffee or climb in bed with your journal. Ask yourself some good questions like: âAm I proud of the life Iâm living? What have I tried this month? ⌠Do the people Iâm spending time with give me life, or make me feel small? Is there any brokenness in my life thatâs keeping me from moving forward?â Now is your time. Walk closely with people you love, and with people who believe life is a grand adventure. Donât get stuck in the past, and donât try to fast-forward yourself into a future you havenât yet earned. Give today all the love and intensity and courage you can, and keep traveling honestly along lifeâs path.â
