"Life begins at 40."
40 is only 15 years away now. That is a sobering thought indeed. I am still young, lots to learn and much I have yet to achieve. The training wheels have been off for a few years and every step towards my goals has been a hurricane of learning.
I am contemplating my next steps, and I actually don't believe in the quarter life crisis concept. Sure, I am freaking out at the possibilities of the future and the decisions I am yet to make, dumb and smart ones alike. I have to go full Kenneth many more times because every failure is a brutal opportunity to learn. Every now and then I imagine most people will have a crisis about what they are doing, "am I making the right choice?" Self questioning can be a good way to self check the potential results, though sometimes I have to throw it aside when it becomes self doubt. Jump off the ledge into the unknown.
"Life begins at 40," is what I told my sister last week. It was a joke, because it doesn't.
I'm looking to my next choices and changes, wondering what the next steps have in store. Regardless of what the result is, the journey is still continuing so I am just a day older. "Kenneth, there is no need to panic. It is only another day." I didn't jump a whole year in a day, just a number
I am thankful to every inspiring person I have met along the way. I am very lucky to know such people, and luckier to have some of them as my friends.
Anyway, I have to prepare for rehearsal. And, singing and acting on my birthday is pretty damn awesome.
