I'm Talkin' Bout In It : The Later Bloomer, My Thirties, My Way

Thirty. God, Here's my wig! Cheers to my first year in my thirties.

Bones crackin. My knees hurt. I need to stretch every morning and night. I can't eat that any more. Why do all of sudden that I like matcha?! Dang! I need probiotic drinks and some vitamin d. Add magnesium to the list so I calm these nerves too. I got to keep working for a living because the economy is ughhh!!

Don't forget, you're going to get diagnosed with pcos too. Well damn, welcome to my era.

Thirty. Pull out your earplugs because it's about to be a lot of screaming, crying and sliding down the wall.

Thirties is very hilarious and so damn serious at the same time. The older I get, the more I need God in my life. My thirties had me lookin' like Raven Baxter. I swear I went straight into vision mode. I digress.

Here's my story. In actuality, in my ADHD wondering mind, I believed that I didn't just have everything just yet. I felt behind. I'm a true late bloomer. There's no shame in my game. Maybe it was just anxiety.. it most definitely was, I'm not going to lie. Everyone my age was ahead in their careers, babies, marriage and driving their car. A baby in this economy though, no thank you. Mind you, I was still catching the bus in the rain. It was rough out here.

After some deep conversations with God and my best friend, I learned a lot more about myself. It's not always about the race, it's about how you finish. Just because I want something now, doesn't mean it won't happen later down the line.

Maybe I will finish that script. Draft out my book. Book another flight and go somewhere adventurous. Lose some more weight or even cook some brownies. I'm definitely switching careers but it's a process. One thing about it, I cannot rush God's timing because of my own timeline. Step by step, day by day, with just some Beyonce music in the background. It's up from here.

Before I turn 31 tomorrow, here's some epic things I did during 30 :)
