The Scary 20s

As a twenty-something, I'm just going to say it; the twenties are scary. The amount of growth one experiences in the twenties is unique and happens at an exponential rate. The difference between the emotional quotient of a 21-year-old and a 29-year-old is huge. Compare a 31-year-old and 39-year-old and there is not much difference. As we age, the years of a decade don't make much of a difference.

From just graduating college, first job, first house, and probably even first marriage, twenties have it all. With every passing year I keep getting more scared. What if I screw this up? What if I never make it? What if I a lot is left unfinished and the time runs out? 

Well, I don't know the answers to the the above questions, I still have a couple of years left in this decade. However, if you are reading this and have some insightful, fun, deep, or just any story about your life in the twenties, do leave me a comment.

  1. Well.. I never thought of this angle. A very valid point - the 20s are so crucial to one's life.
    You said you are scared. Well, as someone who has past the 20s,my suggestion is be confident. We all make mistakes. If we make one, there is always enough time to correct them, learn and move on.

  2. I'm also in my mid twenties and I'm not scary at all rather enjoying every single minute of it. BTW I just want to tell you that I really love your blog's title "Untitled". Actually, I just refreshed the page couple of times to know what's title of your blog or may you just forgotten to put one but then I gone through it's URL and Eureka! It's another awesome and most beautiful name. Ma'am you (or your intelligence) just impressed a sapiosexual man...!
