Good Morning Lovelies,

Sometimes I feel like I’m not hitting the right goals in life, however, as I approach a new age, I’ve started to think that maybe I don’t need to. My life has been a journey and at 29, I’ve experienced and still am going through a lot. Every day can be a real struggle but I keep going and to me that is the most important thing. 

No longer do I want to hit the milestones that I should. Instead, I just want to see where life takes me. Today, I want you all to know that it is okay to be wherever you are in life. Here are a few things that I am still doing that society thinks I shouldn’t be but I am actually okay with…

Not Having My Dream Job: At 23, I was made redundant from my dream job. I tried to find others to fill the void but nothing fit. All of which leading to my mental health deteriorating even more. Right now, I need to think about my wellness and if that means not working to get better I will do that, as I have been at my lowest of lows when pushing myself too much. I am not doing that again. 

Living At Home With My Mum: My mum is my best friend, so I adore living with her. We have our rooms that we like to chill in and help each other keep it running. We are a power team and I find being with her so soothing. Our home is mad but I don’t want to be anywhere else. 

Being A Virgin At 30: Sex was something that everyone aimed to have when I was a teenager and I will admit I did too. However, as I have gotten older, I’ve actually discovered that I’m okay not having it. Whether that be because I am waiting to meet someone special or the fact that I’m actually not that interested in it is something I’m not sure of. Yet, I’m sure that I’m okay with waiting to find out. There is no rush or problem being a virgin at 30 or any age lovelies. 

Still Being In Education: You are never too old to learn something. In fact, I try to learn something new every single day. I still do educational courses online that I hope I can put to use. It was doing an autism one that I first started thinking about whether I had it. Something I am now diagnosed as. Therefore, you are never too old to learn something new lovelies. 

Limited Travel Experiences: For a long time, my health has made the amount I can travel very limited. Anything that affects my heart or lungs can put me in serious danger. That has meant that I haven’t explored the world like I wanted to. Yet, I’m okay with it. I’m planning places I want to see at home. I’ve been to and found my dream location. I got to experience Italy with my dad. The only person I would have wanted to go there with. I hope to travel more soon but for now the memories I have are lush enough.

Not Having A Clue: By the time we reach our 30s society suggests we should have it all together. I definitely don’t. My heart, head and health is constantly all over the place and that’s left me feeling more like I am 13 instead of approaching 30. I live in a world that I fill with nostalgia. I dream of being back in primary school. I like toys, LEGO and crafts. And I’m okay with it. I’m okay with not having a clue about where my life is taking me because if I knew I would be scared. And I don’t want to live in fear. 

There is honestly no rush to be in the same positions as your peers or loved ones lovelies! I’m definitely flying my own flag through life and starting to really love it! You be you and what will be will be lovelies! The best is yet to come as they always say!
