Knowing most of my relatives recently started to tie the knot is making me pretty anxious. Being almost 25, life welcomes me with the so called ”quarter life crisis”. Most of people is starting to take their life to next step, be it higher career position, finish their master study, or ready to get married (or even have kids already!). But, it’s just most. Some others is still enjoying their life, be it expanding their career, still being single, exploring new things, travelling more, etc. At this point, I’m questioning: is it right moment for me to initiate those crisis?
Well, life crisis whose topic I’d like to emphasize is (uhum) more to love life crisis. Ok, I admit that we are still facing big mountain in front of us. In which we just need courage and perseverance to reach our end goal.
I take my hat off for those who brave enough to start it. Buying rings, finding home to live in, uniting 2 big families, and others. But then I realize that wedding is just a one day ceremony. The life awaits day after is much more thrilling. I mean, pregnant, raising kids, making sure they grow up well and getting the best education & life are pretty much challenging. You must not have the same ideas with your partner, but at least you must live under same perspective, how you see life. And those foundations, you must ensure it before you make it official.With right person, settling things is much easier. With wrong person, even the right things will never feel right.Please kindly take note that I’m saying this not to make it as a burden, just to show the bittersweet truth.
Now, we are building a mature relationship. It’s not something that we set up in order to become one. It’s just thing that comes naturally. Our recent dates were filled in with discussions, from the lightest one to most serious, hardest one. We’d rather spread and share happiness to people around us than publishing things to people virtually (we still do sometimes, though:p), and those should bring positive impact in each aspect of our life.
The simplest effect is, I gain the power and the passion to start writing again. Even though the process to find ”what to write” is hard, and distractions are everywhere, when you are in good mood, you can always find a way to finish it.
