For The 20somethings Who Think This Cant Be LifeFor The 20somethings Who Think This Cant Be LifeFor The 20somethings Who Think This Cant Be Life...I'm grateful for life. Now if only I could figure out what I'm supposed to do with it.For the undecided, the stagnant, the dreamers not doers, the not-quites, the apathetic and mundane.

My friends, we have entered the age of the 20s.My friends, we have entered the age of the 20s.My friends, we have entered the age of the 20s.We are painting the gray between right and wrong decisions as we feel our way through life.

We see a younger version of ourselves that embodiedfulfillment, whisked away in a carefree breeze from day today. We stand still in disbelief, wondering how we got here

and wishing to go back.

Maybe if we drank more wine, adulthood will make sense.

We look to our peers who have become best friends withfortune, wondering if we can get on its good side, too. Feelingsof inadequacy, the pressure to do more, and be more, haunt u sat each dawn and dusk. But feel comfort in knowing thateveryone will experience this slump of mere existence.

But Reality has struck.

We have found ourselves riding the pendulum that rocks us to both extremes stupidity and enlightenment during times of moving life events that teach and remindus simultaneously. Most times we sit idle in the middle of the two when our world stops moving. This poses a frightening dilemma as we ponder swinging left or right andare even more so afraid of being haunted by stillness. In silence, we face the past failures and missed opportunities that ignited our burned bridges so young in our journeys.

We do not wish to self-reflect. We are young, but old enough to believe we can do what we want, and stupidenough to actually follow through. These are the times of rebellion, fast living, and endless celebration.
