Thirty and One

I am 31.

I feel that my 30th year has been a year of growth.  I believe I have improved as a person.  I have realized what I should prioritize and what I should put on the "later" list.

On the later list is my career.  I have not been working because we chose as a family that I stay at home to nurture our kid.  I thought I would go crazy at home. At times, I was.  However, I have relishing being at home.

I am still going to school though.  Studying, learning and anything related to making my brain function is something I have given top priority to.  I want to grow and to continue learning (whether formally or informally).

I guess what I learned last year is to not hurry.  I have been living Ecclesiastes 2's lessons.  There is a season for everything and 30 was a season to realize that everything has a season. In this freakishly fluid, fast and push-yourself-to-the-limit world, I think realizing that was a feat.

Now, the main question is, what will 31 bring?

See you next year for the answer. :)

Correction: I meant Ecclesiastes 3 not 2 though chapter 2 is also a very good one.  That book has been a very good read lately.  :-)
