So here I am, arrived where most girls never wanna go.just turned 30, and dying to write about it. It’s
more then a week since trying to gather some great words about turning 30. So
exited! So much to share about turning 30, I mean c’mon it's a milestone of
your life. (Now I actually
understand that pain of turning 30. Oh God Why! Why me! Why!)
You are 30! You
know better now, you are so clear and mature. You know most about life, you
have it all figured out and you know what you want, what you have achieved! (That’s what you'd think!)You have a
life partner, have a house, You are financially secure (what does that mean!), you have 10 years old license (just got it
2months back) Now the only question remains is that how will you contribute to
the world, what do you do to be remembered by, plan and start saving for
retirement (planning to start my career!!)That is what happens when you are
thirty! Right! (Or at-least in my dreams)
All I now is, I am
still alive! Happy! and beautiful. Not to mention the stress to figure out my
career. But oh well, who is perfectly happy! The thing that matters to me and I
think about is what have I done in THIRTYYYY years that I can be proud of! (Oh
gosh! it's high time to look in to it)
And again it’s not
like I have not achieved any thing! My biggest achievement so far (the best
achievement any one could ever have) is, My awesome hubby and my gorgeous
delicate flower. Whom I am super proud to have achieved and she runs my life
pretty much (isn't she most adorable, now you know why I am super happy!)
Let’s do a little
analysis of 29 years of my life, shall we!
What I have
learned so far is that I have learned to love my self. It
took me good while to be able to love my self for what I am. (You know those
complexes about your self when just turn 20, and never good enough for your
expectation. trying to be like someone. but never sure what you really
like)yeah took me a decade to understand and like my self.
I have learned to
let go and forgive. Understood that no point carrying silly baggage of anger
and hate. all it does that harm me.
I have fallen over
my nose thousands of times for not listening to my heart, so now I know for
sure that listen to my heart always always!
I have also
learned to move on! (Which I badly needed)
Other then that,
most people at-least figures out their personal style by thirty. In my case I
have to first start earning, before I can even think about figuring out my
fashion style. But I have to say that I am managing to dress well enough to hide
my bulges!
What will I do,
Its sure is the
time to start looking after my self very closely. Past thirty if you are not
careful you could get in trouble later. Now I am gonna take my health, sleep
and food very seriously. Because if you really wanna save your self from huge
depression of turning 40, only tool you have is to feel youthful and great
about your self, so I my mission starts now.
Most important of
all is to figure out to be happy in the moment, which
I am practicing very hard. I believe that To feel great at any stage of your
life all you need is to be happy and healthy. And to find happiness in every
little thing there is no better tool then being grateful. I have started to
write gratitude journal for a year and it changes your perspective towards
every little thing. You are much much more satisfied, appreciative and happy.
Ps: one more thing I love about being thirty is that, those first
days of sex are over, when you are overwhelmed, curious and confused, what all
you tried to know secretly is miles away from reality. And you make stupid
mistakes. I am glad to have been there..! done that and know that is
beautiful:-)
And…And…And (wait I am not finished yet!) Beeeest of allll is that
scary day has come and gone I finally am 30! it in it’s self it very reliving.
You know when people freak you out with all scary stories about turning thirty
and how you don’t want that day to arrive when you are really scared of
something! Oh that anxiety of it’s coming soon! It’s over I am thirty
Tell you what! It was all right actually. I felt very good it feels
like an achievement in it’s self. Don’t worry dive in it’s beautiful. J
PPS: If you still want
to know more, why turning 30 is awesome or wanna make your self a little light
from all turning 30 pressure. Check out this post, I came across this and could
not stop laughing. It’s awesome
and super funny!
