I seem to think when you are in your 30s you can't enjoy life as much as you did in your 20s and that you have to start taking life more seriously. I'm 28 nearly 29, and when I was 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26 and 27, I hardly had and still hardly have any friends to hang out, going out for a drink, going out with them to somewhere really exciting during the day or an exotic holiday somewhere or seeing an amazing band at a concert. I seem to think that's the fun part of your life and I was and still am not doing none of those things and I feel I've missed out the best ages in life and wasted my time. I only went to places and holidays mostly with parents. Until 26 I still didn't have a job since leaving university at 22 and have a car now at 28, I sometimes think 'Why didn't I do these things 5 years earlier ?'. I feel everyone else a bit younger than me have achieved those things more than I have and living the high life than I am and have lots more time left to enjoy life until they're 30.
I seem to think when you're 30 and over you are not young anymore but I mean you're not middle aged but I mean at what age you considered young ? and what age are you considered middle age and old ?

I am sorry to tell you that there are infinite ways to live a life. You can choose to be a pirat, or a monk, maybe a celebrity, or a newage coach, or a liar, maybe a prophet, or an athlet, perhaps an artist, or an inventor, or a chess player, or a plumber, a master of nothing, or an astronaut, a dilettante, a warrior, a poet, or the silent one up in the mountain, or a bandit, an eunuch, or perhaps noboby, or all at the same time or whatever you choose to be.... I choose to be my self.

Outside the pubs is plenty of life, hope you can oneday find your place in earth. Ah! never apologize for being you.
