Yo fellow 35 yr olds in panic mode. Yes, this is your mid-30s crisis, and apparently it's real. See here. And here. Oh and here's a book. But mostly, just listen. You, too, will love this Belle Brigade song, Losers. (Not that this bro/sis duo from LA are in crisis - they are but kids living their dreams. a-holes, er, winners?) It's actually the most heartening thing if you really listen. I think it's saying forget what you think you should do or be, or where you thought you would be, and perhaps any of that pesky "wasted time". Be who/what you are. . . where you are. Occupy your space. Do it well. And forget the rest. Keep moving. Maybe this is why the mid-30s crisis is real and resonating. . . my priorities are profoundly changing maybe for the first time in my life . . . and I'm more aware of what I want and where I want to be, but also more aware of certain risks than ever before, too, and truly how fast time flies. Oy. Losers unite.
