It is so easy to get caught up in the flowing days of life and not realize if anything needs to be tended inside, staying forever afloat in the stream and forever feeling lost. It is because everything is amazingly dynamic. We are mostly taught that the goal in life is to reach a steady, stable, static state -the ultimate state-, in which we hold a secure job, a small family and a little house. And then, we grow up -or try to- and realize that we are at the age our parents reached their ultimate state and that we are so far away from anything that resembles stability. We first reach the age they got married. My mom did when she was 24. I’ve reached that age -a long time ago- and passed it almost as quickly as I reached it. Then comes the age when they had kids. My mom had us when she was 30. Phew! Luckily, I’m still not that far… Close, though. Is it even possible for me anymore to reach and successfully pass all these milestones in the couple of years I have left till the doom’s...
