I’ve coined this term “quarter-life crisis” (and maybe I’m not the first to say it lol) because I’ve experienced about 17 of them. You always hear about people having a mid-life crisis, but you can’t tell me we don’t also have a quarter-life crisis. I’m 27 years old, and I am constantly trying to figure out what the hell I’m doing with my life, what is my “calling”, what is the meaning of life, am I being the best person I can be, etc. etc. etc. I sometimes wish I didn’t have such high expectations for my life because I feel there is the possibility that I will never get over this feeling of not-knowing and of not being satisfied. There are a lot of things that I love doing and being involved in, but am I good at any of them? I’m not so sure. It’s funny how when one thing in your life is right, it seems that everything else is so wrong. I have a husband that is all I could ever ask for. I mean really he is an amazing guy and he makes me want to be better. I feel that this part of my life is figured out. The rest of my life… not so much. This is where the quarter-life crisis comes in. I feel like maybe I’m not doing something right, maybe I’m not on the right track. It is really insane how much I think about this. I believe in visualizing and positive thinking, and I do this as much as I can, but there are those times when I just get impatient. I know a lot of people who are around the same age as me that have similar feelings, and unfortunately I don’t have any solution. I’m really just ranting because, as you may have guessed, I’m in the middle of my 18th quarter-life crisis.
