Tomorrow I turn 26. so funny, I don't feel the difference from being 24 or 25. Because I think the life is in the current, and happens day by day, minute after minute. All these dates & milestones anyways are just mark-ups invented by us. 25 December is Christmas for some, and a normal day for others, every celebration is only in the attitude, not in the date itself.
And so I think our life changes when something happens: events, decisions, meeting other people - not when your calendar turns and you mark up another year in the birthday celebrations tradition... Birthday is just a moment in time to stop and take notice.
I think the fast-paced life I lived in my teenage and early 20s made me used to the changes; I feel like nothing special or significant happened in the last year or two, while before something quite radically changed almost every year.
I want new challenges and new surroundings; new conversations and new motivations.
How am I going to make my next year the most exciting year yet??
