It’s 3.24 am and I’ve decided I’m going to be a weirdo and post something.
I’m not sure whether I can call it writers block because I don’t feel “blocked”, only that over the past couple of weeks completing a post has been challenging, so challenging that it hasn’t happened.
…See? I’m stumped. I don’t know what else to write or where I’m going with this.
Okay I’ve got it. Rather than let it be another month before something worthwhile comes out of my mouth, I’ll vomit on here some of things going through my mind and maybe you can relate.
1. Leaving my 20’s. I have just over 2 months before my next birthday and erm I’m kinda shitting myself. Out of my 101 goals, NONE have been achieved (exaggerating much?). I should have a thriving career, be a millionaire, married with one child, living in a beautiful home, the first person to…not sure what exactly, all I know is that I’m supposed to be the first in something, the list is endless. Those goals don’t shift and then there’s all my weekly/monthly/yearly goals, publish my book, travel more, buy a home, stay debt free, script write a show, put on a stage production, get fit, clear skin, blah blah blah.
2. After that there’s the day to day stuff, such as having a bus hit your parked car. I couldn’t make this shit up, but that is the third car incident in 3 months. Did you hear me? I said the THIRD in 3 MONTHS. Fortunately, I wasn’t in it nor was the damage irreparable. Still, it’s a pain to deal with. And that’s just one thing out of many more.
3. Due to the above I can’t help but feel a bit of a failure, like what have I done with my life? Granted, I am my worst critic and my perception of myself is undoubtedly warped, however this feeling isn’t any less true for me.
With all of that said, the good thing is, these feelings will eventually pass and I take solace in that.
Goodnight Xo
P.s I did say I’d vomit, sorry 🤷🏾♀️.
Thank you for your transparency! I’m new to the blogging world, which has been both exciting and nerve wrecking. I can relate so much because I’m nowhere near where I’d thought I’d be. I’ve transitioned into my later twenties and its frightening because I had all of these goals. Then life happened, and I felt like I should be further. Then I realized that I’m right where I need to be, and things will begin to come together. Not necessarily the way I hoped for, but it will still come to pass. One of my favorite sayings when I’m feeling low is “delayed doesn’t mean denied”. It’s helping me maintain the momentum needed to fulfill my dreams. Good luck to you in all that you set out to do!
Hi Bre Joanne, thanks for reading and commenting! And welcome to the blogging world 🙂 . You’re absolutely correct. Where we are is exactly where we are meant to be, and yes we might not like it or feel like we should be here but that ‘uncertainty’ is also necessary for our growth. I like that ‘delayed doesn’t mean denied’. I want to add that what is for you cannot be taken from you and all things happen in divine order. As with everything there is a season, a time to sow and a time to reap.
Thank you Bre Joanne and I wish you the same X
