As I came up with this title, I found it quite fitting since it's been much too long since I've written here. Don't know if it's the recent double-digit-changing age or just life in general. But I've been feeling sentimental.
Got together with some long time friends recently and remembered that when I was working with them, I was the youngest. They were my advisors, confidantes, cohorts and helped keep me together at times. Of course, I'm still the youngest of most of them, but now I realize I've become that person at work and it's oddly unsettling. It's as if I'm at the head of the trail looking back, wondering how I got here.
How DID I get here?? I'm not that person, I'm still the young one, I think to myself. And yet, here I am. It's part of what makes me see how quickly time goes.
But then, I feel as if there is still so much ahead of me, new and exciting and yet to be discovered. Sounds cliche' but it's how I feel. Maybe that's the perspective I'm able to have at my age.
