Signs You’ve Got Your Life Together
What mature adulting looks like
I don’t know about you, but for the most part, I feel like my life is far from ‘together.’ Being a middle-aged woman should signify that I possess some semblance of maturity however, most days I still feel like a teenager, not really knowing what I want to do with my life or what I want to be when I grow up.
Some days I consider becoming a florist, other days I want to be a member of parliament and then there’s those days where I don’t get out of my pajamas, eat a family block of chocolate in one sitting and binge on a reality TV series.
Whilst just last week I was presenting in front of a corporate audience, literally just today in an online work meeting I spent five minutes talking to my colleagues about how uneven my nostrils look on my laptop camera. I kid you not!
I’m wondering whether there comes a day when all of a sudden, my years of living actually result in wisdom. I don’t know that I’ve got any wisdom yet as I still call my mother to ask her how to cook a roast beef. Also, how on earth can I successfully raise two vivacious kids of my own if I’m still asking my dad which screw driver is a Phillips head?
