The Sun Still Rose Today

Well I have survived, even tho I never really thought I would. I'm not too entirely sure how I should feel. This was one of, if not my biggest fear in the last few years. I often wondered how I would cope when the time came. Would I even get out if bed or would I just jump in my car and drive until I ran out of fuel? There were many things I wanted to accomplish by the time this came around. And I did most of them. In fact I did the most important one of them all, and that I am truly happy with.

You know when you're looking forward in time to an upcoming event or trip. Most of the time I can look forward to and see past those upcoming intervals in time. Meaning that I had an idea of what I'd be doing or how things would be going after those situations had past. But yesterday was something I have seen coming for years, and yet I have never been able to look or see past that day. But here I sit the day after and I am still living and breathing and typing... Albeit no faster or better than I have in the past.

So what now? I don't really know. Do I act differently? Or try to be different? I still feel the same as I did or rather always have.

For now I guess I'll simply try to take each day as it comes... so cliche, I know. But I'm still learning, after all, I've only been 30 for a day.

Was pleasantly surprised to get your comment about why married men hit on single women. I'll be posting a response question and would love to hear what you have to say on it too. Any objections to being a guinea pig? Cool. And on top of that I took a wee gander at your latest post and was then further pleasantly surpised.

You must be an old soul.

The 30's (and I'm only 31) are the most wonderful place I've been yet. The anticipation of getting close to 30 was WAY worse than actually turning 30. I swear I said Thank God the morning I awoke 30. Sounds like you did a bit too.

Just wait until 31 hits. My entire group of friends agree with me - none of us would do over our 20's again for a million. You'll see.

I've wondered the same about our poster here myself... Nice to see you writing again.

Thanks Stella.

It's not that I haven't wanted to write, just been so busy the last little while. But I still find time to pop in on your blog for a quick read.

I am OLD! I mean c'mon, I'm already half way to 60! ;)
