I've not blogged for a while, because there was an earthquake... and then a fire... my brother embarked on an unexpected candle making venture the results of which have left my house fragrant... and a few other interesting happenings that have until now, left my brain unable to form any thoughts suitable for blogging consumption.
I had a feeling that 2010 would somehow be significant, I'm just panicked by the speed at which it is flying by.
I know I'm not the only one who has done this, but I've always had 'the life plan' - the one where you know what age you expect to be married, have babies, settle into a career... This year, was the year where I had to let go of the plan. And may I add, willingly. I hadn't realised I still held on to it (I was supposed to be married at 24/25, career gently moving forward in a settled way from aged 25, and the rest followed) but when I turned 25 last week I felt some burden of expectation disappear! Odd.
Now, I'm aware that I can trundle along comfortably whilst complaining that life is going too fast, or .. something else. Challenge myself maybe, possibly put a bit of effort into making life interesting. Being brave enough to put myself out there - my confidence can longer lie in being 'remarkably young to be doing what I'm doing', it has to be in being good at it.
Also, I think I should probably try to go on holiday some time.
