Quarter Life.

There comes a time in one's life

When you're on the phone with a doctor's office,

And they ask how old you are.

When you say out loud '25' you think in your head, 

'Wait a second, that's not right..', proceed to do the math

and indeed, 25 is the correct number.

You're doing this while you're sitting in your car in front of the grocery store.

You're there to buy fresh vegetables and produce.

You just got back from getting some home decor and cleaning supplies at Target.

You are planning on going home and cleaning, getting out that trusty tool kit that you bought only last month and hanging some things.

You're going to pay your electric bill, too.

Last Friday,

You got up (still, far too late) and had the desire to be active.  

It was around 45 degrees out, but you didn't care...You wanted to hike.

If it proved to be impossible to hike due to weather, you were at least going to run.

You've never felt that way before in your life....You were craving activity.

It was the craziest thing.

You went on that hike despite the cold...And an even crazier thing happened.

It snowed.  

On the 27th of September, you were caught in snow.

You looked out at the mountains around you, and this snowfall and thought about how never in your life had you seen snow fall in September...And you think about your life, and you are happy.  

Happy to the point of tears.

Growing up really is okay.

Life can be lovely.

The end for now.
