Not that I mind it, being thirty and life passing me by like crazy; me trying to chase it and make some sense of it all...
Maybe thirties is all about being content and trying to make with what you have ....
Since " Life is not about what the world holds for you but what you bring to it..."
Overall, it is all good... plenty of reasons to be grateful.
But there are give and takes..
So yeah Friday afternoon, after an important meeting and a talk me and a friend were supposed to grab a bite and discuss couple of important things regarding our plans for next year and all... Some work emergency had prompt her to cancel ...
And all of a sudden that little voice in my head told me it is a perfect opportunity for an afternoon all by myself in a cozy coffeehouse in Berkeley, doing nothing....
And then I remembered that I have yet to make plans with two different group of friends, and Friday sounds perfect.. Plus I haven't been to my kickboxing class in ages..
So yeah where were we?
I used to be a sucker for cozy coffee shops in Berkeley and the colorful characters that I would get to watch walking in and out of them...
I used to spend hours by myself, retreating into my world...
Now I am busy planning the next move, the next year, the next decade...
BUSY catching up with the life that is passing me by with the speed of I don't know what...
Not that I have any complaints..
Things are in place in my life, or they seem like it...
It is just that once in a while you stop and look back....
Nothing stays the same... even the person that you are
One thing I am certain though, I will always write; this is the only thing that I know will never change..
