In a week I will turn 25. This is a significant number for me for a few reasons not only because of personal reasons byt also of popular reasons.
First, it marks the first quarter of my life having passed me by. And what have I to show for it? Not much actually. But to me the experiences I've lived through and the learning I've gone through are worth more than this lifetime I've already lived. Now it's a matter of putting this experience and learning to good use.
Second, it marks one of the personal milestones I've set of myself since I was 14. I haven't quite started on a few things yet I've planned (that family and the degree to mention a couple) but I am working on some other things (which I intend not to mention).
Third, this marks the 25 times people around me will be celebrating my life -- and that I'm still alive. I think it's actually going to be a sad day when people stopped caring when you've turned one year older. Thank God for family and friends who never cease to make life worth enjoying.
So there you have it: on the 27th will be my birthday. Now I just have to figure out how to celebrate it.
