So, it's December! Christmas! Yay! I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was delightful. If you feel like continuing to spread the joy-don't forget to donate to my charity!
So-my Nike + app has started my 1/2 marathon training and it's going okay so far...I ran 4 miles today during my lunch break and I didn't pass out, so that's a thing!
But here's why I am musing...I turn 25 tomorrow (or more in like 2 hours). For the last few weeks its been nagging me as to what I've done in these 25 years and where am I going from here. I joke that it's my "quater-life crisis" and while it's started as a joke I think there might be something valid to it. I feel...old...which makes my mom roll her eyes. But while on the train home today I started thinking about what I have done in these 25 years and honestly...it hasn't been as boring as I have feared.
I've graduated from two different schools. I've traveled a bit. I've choreographed. I've laughed. I've fallen in and out of "love" and then found a true Love. My faith has been tested. I've cried. I've moved 4 times. I've made decisions that were poor but made great stories.I've ran races. I hope I've helped people. I have acted and found my craft and I have learned how to make the best of things I don't like. I've made friends. I've lost some. I've seen my families strength and witnessed some great pieces of art. There are a lot of things I want to do in the next 25 years; from more acting to starting a family. And it's going to be hard. But I hope that no matter what I encounter I remember that I can do it and that I have a hell of a support system around me. Whether I'm acting in a movie or making someone laugh at work, whether I've got a team to help me or if I'm doing it on my own...this life isn't all planned out...I do get a say...I just need to remember it.
I hope that during this busy time of year that you take time to reflect on what you've done and what you wish to do. I hope I've inspired you to do something different or challenging. Or just to re-commit. We can all help each other in this.
Okay-"deep" post is done...time to go sleep away the last few hours of being 24 :)
