I feel like it's been a long time since I've felt truly passionate about something. I think most of the time I go through the motions and do life like I always have... except... When I look back on things... It makes me laugh because my life has been a sort of adventure.
I remember I used to read books and long for the adventure knowing it would take a deal of personal sacrifice. Its funny to me now how I didn't see how adventurous my life really was because the adventure wasn't how I pictured it. It's funny to me that I'm the "heroine of my own story". Sort of. And it's especially funny to me that where I once longed for adventure, I now long for the mundane.
Don't get me wrong, I still have that desire for adventure... in small doses. But mostly my desires center around the idea of holding down a job, getting an apartment, meeting a nice guy, dating for a little while, getting married and starting the adventure of building a family.
Life is hard.
I'm nowhere near where I thought I would be. But maybe there's a learning curve. One of the things I really want to do right now is get my finances on track. And I think i'm in a good place to do that. I've got a great job and I seem to be doing alright in it. I've started mini investments through an app on my phone. Ive started a savings account. These are all in the beginnings... but i feel like I'm in a good place with them right now. I guess we will see where things go.
