GLITTER DUST OF MY MIND. SOLILOQUY.
Traveling by boat as the sun sets, when the dark night meets the light blue sky. As the sun embraces the darkness, the beautiful lights departs my eye. When the pristine blue water reflects its beauty, the sky was as fierce as fire. In contrast to the blue clouds royalty, a spectrum of light in a glam. The sun exits gracefully and the white clouds wave goodbye, The night sways its' long gown of majesty, cloaked to reign, taking its throne. At the end of the day, she raises its scepter as the stage she owns. - Emily The Beauty of Youthfulness9 December 2011 at 07:04
There are people in your lives that you meet whom really inspires you a lot as to living and loving life. Now that I am at my thirties, of course priorities are managed. Your perspective in life is also different. Your views about everything has evolved. This article is a comparison and sort of a looking back to how i was at my 20s. Unique as my attitude is, at early twenties, mindset is mind boggling, which I think makes made my ideas quite interesting. This reminds me of the me when I was younger. Here are a few things I will share what makes it worth this article: 1 Young yet Fearless When we were at 20+, we did a whole lot of crazy things in our lives. We were daring. We think of what we want and we do what we want. The love for spontaneity. At times, we do what we want to do even without thinking of consequences. Come what may. You wanted to fight with your boss, then do did so, just to prove you were theoretically correct, opposing the norms. Didn't even realize he will give you a big fat FIRED not due to performance but insubordination! You wanted to show your worth at work and you did everything to excel. If someone tries to oppose, then you always just say that you don't care! 2 Smart yet Irrational Based on my experiences, other peoples experiences and observation from people, no matter how smart we call ourselves, we know we did a few stupid decisions back then. May it be related to education in college, like school to study, course to take, friends to make, place to live and people to love. You often thought that you were 20 and you think you can make decisions for your own self. I chose to live on my own apartment. When I started to live on my own in a new place, new environment, it was the start of every single FUN! Of course though, when all the fun became excessive, it all started to become a MESS! 3 Inlove yet Addicted So this is where love comes into the picture. Love when you are young, burning, fiery, intense but crazy. You felt so inlove that you always thought he or she is the person to marry. Despite all the flaws, the incompetency, the incompatibility, you ignore just to prove it was pure love. Love that becomes too much that it affects all other important things at such age, like family, friends, work. Love becomes an addiction that it starts eating you up because it was too much. For some, This was the time when they decided to get married just because they wanted to take their relationships to the next level. Young love. Definitely the best loves. 4 Independent yet Immature We all wanted to make decisions in our life, wanted to move out and start our own journeys. These were the time when you wanted to feel like you want to steer the wheel of you life. These were the times I thought it was okay for me to start clubbing, partying, having a great time. You earn your own money, you do not know what to do with your money, single, so many things you wanted to do, so many things you wanted to try and so many things you wanted to explore. And so you did! Cause you said you were independent, you thought you right, you thought you are fine without all the support you want to get. 5 Strong yet Transparent We always wanted to define our personality, we wanted to make a name for ourselves. We wanted to make a statement. We wanted to become someone. This is the point of our lives when we search for the career we would want to be in and you start to take things like it is a serious matter. Oh yes! This is when you start thinking that you have to live up for something and it is the start of it. Yes, with a strong start but we are still very transparent, which means we still become quite gullible with how the tricky world works. This is the time when you want to stay focused but distracted time to time. This is the time when you said you will take things seriously but still give in to some crazy things at times. Being 20+ is a great age to explore, great age to have fun, great age to do crazy stuff, best age to live to the fullest. If only I had known and realized, that age was the prime, I should have done so many things I never even dared to experience. It is never too late though for anyone. If you are at this stage, then Carpe Diem baby! If you are past thru this stage, relive, Cest la Vie! If you are still living this stage despite your age, could be good or bad for you, then live it and love it! Life is too beautiful to waste. |
