Another year, another birthday
And yet another reminder that I haven’t achieved as much as I wanted to by this age. Not even close.
Career, job, husband, children?

I’ve seen far too many news articles telling stories of young people killing themselves over the lack of a job and everything else it can bring, like a home, a partner, children and pets.
