During childhood, time drags so slowly it seems that everything is still to come, and life will be eternal. But as we age, the weeks, days and hours unfortunately insanely rush past us. Over the years many of us start realizing how important it is to learn to accept our imperfections and to love the closest people; how important it is to learn how to choose what makes us happy, to fight for what seems worth fighting for, and enjoy life – simply because we live only ones.
When you turn 30 you start thinking of life in a slightly different way, because you, on the one hand, already have life experience and, on the other, have a lot of life ahead of you to live, dreams to fulfill, people to love, places to go!
There are so many lessons I wish I had learned when I was younger. Unfortunately, it always happens that you realize essential truth only when the mistake is already made.
