On the big two-five…
I can’t believe I’m a quarter-century old today.
I think, here’s another testament to how fast time flies. Here I am, chalking up another year, and sometimes asking myself if I can really feel it.
I’m thankful—I always am—for yet another digit added to my age. For simply being here, being safe and healthy and well taken care of. For everything I have been given, even if I do fail to appreciate them sometimes. And, most of all, for every person I hold very important in this life.
But still, realizing how fast all these years have passed makes me scared of the future sometimes. I mean, sure, we are often reminded to live life one day at a time and all that, pero minsan, hindi mo rin talaga maiiwasang isipin ang mga “what-ifs” na nasa hinaharap.
Then again, there is that Bible passage, “Don’t be anxious about tomorrow”, which I have always kept in my brain and in my heart since early this year. Each day is different amidst whatever personal routines we have. And each day leaves us with different experiences and lessons that we can choose to bring with us or not as we chalk up one day after another.
Meanwhile, on with the show. On with life. TGI25 (Thank God, I’m 25). :)
