Embracing My Thirties: A Journey of Change and Growth

I’m reaching my thirties, and I feel the weight,
A sense of time slipping, it’s never too late.
Yet, in moments of quiet, I can’t help but see,
A part of me wondering what happened to me.

The trends are new, and I’m feeling out of place,
The world moves so fast, it’s a dizzying race.
I scroll through my phone, but the songs have changed,
The faces are younger, the styles rearranged.

In my twenties, I felt like I had it all right,
Chasing dreams, full of passion and light.
Now, the path feels different, the road is a bit long,
I question if I’m still where I truly belong.

But then, I pause, and I look within,
This feeling of “outdated” is where growth begins.
For wisdom comes not in the trend or the style,
But in learning to live with grace for a while.

I’ve lived through moments that shaped who I am,
Each scar, each triumph, a part of the plan.
The beauty of aging is not in what’s gone,
But in knowing the journey has only begun.

So, as I step into my thirties, with thoughts in a swirl,
I realize I’ve still got so much to unfurl.
Outdated? Perhaps, in a few passing trends,
But my soul is timeless, with much more to transcend.

For happiness lies not in the race or the pace,
But in living each moment with a smile on your face.
The world may be changing, but so am I,
And that’s the true beauty, as the years go by.
