Twenty-five

No one can truly imagine what it feels like to hit your mid twenties without being or was once one.
One can only try to put all those feeling in words.
And yet you'll find out that none of it justifies what it really feels like .

It feels like being thrown into a vortex of craziness and decisions which ties into one's future.

Decisions have be to made.

Between career and marriage.

Between staying here or there.

Between meeting social expectations and conventions and own desires.

Chronological age is just a number like what most would say.
But it is a benchmark used to measure one against social conventions and milestones.

It made it extra difficult when this is the age when one thinks he or she sort of got life figured out.
Understanding repercussions, regrets, emotions, philosophies of life (especially the part that says SHIT HAPPENS)...

If i am destined to live till i'm 50 or less
(which might already be a blessing)

I'm already half way there.

Its scary.

But i know that life shouldn't be measured by how long you have lived,
but rather what legacies you have left behind.
