Counting Down To 30 And Owning It

I woke up this morning with indigestion. Don’t feel bad for me, it’s kinda my fault. That’s what you get when you indulge in a piece of cheesy bread and ice cream after you’ve had a filling dinner of Massa and… Let me stop here lol. Not proud of it, but It was a weak day for me.

Anyway, I woke up with indigestion, but there was an energy within that pushed me to do my chores and get them out of the way.

The clock just struck 10:00am and I was holding my Infinix Note 4. I’d just spoken with my 2 year old and 4 year old cousins so I was feeling pretty peaceful… They do that to me ☺. I checked the date and realised something – it’s 14 days to my birthday. Not just any birthday, but my 30th. Wow!!!
I’m finally hitting the disco era of ages 😂, at least for women.

Few weeks, even days, ago the recollection of this fact caused me very conflicting emotions, but today I feel very different.
Today I feel strong, I feel good, I feel brave and confident, but most of all, I’m happy and determined to remain so about this milestone.

Why should I be sad? Maybe I’m feeling I haven’t achieved enough, either by my standards or by society’s or it’s a reminder that I’m now totally on my own in the world… Whatever it is, I don’t want to feel that way about something great.

First stop on the 30’s train… Getting my nails done 😁

I may not be where I wanna be, but I’m that much closer. People have died much younger, some are alive but don’t have half as much as I do so why should I wear a frown?

Life is what you make of it and getting older is what you make of it so I’m deciding to make the most of mine by being positive and staying thankful. #ImOwningIt 😉

Are you counting down with me?
