They call it the "Quarter-life Crisis."
It is when you stop going along with the crowd
and start realizing that there are many things
about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.
about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.
You start feeling insecure and wonder
where you will be in a year or two, but
then get scared because you barely know where you are now.
You start realizing that people are selfish
then get scared because you barely know where you are now.
You start realizing that people are selfish
and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to
aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met,
and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones.
What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too,
and aren't really cold, catty, mean or insincere,
but that they are as confused as you.
You look at your job... and it is not even close to what you thought
you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing
that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares
you.
Your opinions have gotten stronger.

Your opinions have gotten stronger.
You see what others are doing and find yourself
judging more than usual because suddenly you
realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are
constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what
isn't. One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.

You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life.
You feel alone and scared and confused.
Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try
and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the
past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to
do but stay where you are or move forward.
You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do
such damage to you.

Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet
anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better.
anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better.
Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why
you are doing this because you know that you aren't a bad person.
One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap.
Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic.
You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and
talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem
to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, the future and
making a life for yourself... and while winning the race would be
great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!
What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to
it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as
hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.
