30 Things of Wisdom

It all started January 21, 1995 at 9pm in a blizzard. The day I was born. People always say that their 30’s are the best years of their life because you know yourself, you have a steady paycheck and solid friends, well for me that is somewhat true. To be honest, the biggest lesson I’ve learned thus far in my 30’s, is 30 is just a number. I am unfortunately unemployed, working on my mental health and dodging plans because my metabolism isn’t what it used to be. Reality blows, but only focusing on my ‘what ifs’ are not going to get me anywhere. So from one 30 year old to my online journal, here are 30 lessons guidelines I’ve learned to live a normal and positive life.
