I saw this article on someone's Facebook. I don't usually ready the Huffington Post, but this definitely resonated with me even if I don't agree with every part of the article.
There are definitely things that I know now that I wish my 17 year old self would have known before leaving for Auburn. I was feeling bad about everything that was a part of my "five year plan" at some point and what I had hoped to accomplish by this time in my life, but I had to sit back and look at what I have accomplished. I have two college degrees, I've passed one of the hardest professional exams that exists, I've started my career, I've moved to a new city all by myself, I've bought a house and I have friends that make my life so much richer. It sounds like alot, I really do know it is alot, but I'm still not where I wanted to be in my "perfect" world on the eve of 25.
As Number 25 says, "There's so much you don't know yet." I wonder how I will feel in five years when I'm on the cusp of...gasp...30?
