Hello y'all. This is kind of off topic, but I thought I would post it anyway. I turned 27 in November and I'm completely starting over in life...switching careers and going into nursing, trying to make new friends(the one's I choose from my younger days turned out to be duds), recently ditched by a guy that I really liked...oh, and I moved back home with my parents to start nursing school. I'm kind of overwhelmed with feeling "old" and not settled yet in life. Is anyone else going through the same thing??? Has anyone gone through this??? I was just looking for some words of encouragement!!
It takes courage to start again, but you will find that ultimately it is exhilarating! You will find out more about yourself over the coming couple of years than many people discover in a lifetime. Embrace every day and keep your eye on the prize!
hey everyone, thanks for the replies!!! it makes me feel better to know that other people have gone through the same situation. it is easy for me to get discouraged b/c everyone i know is settling down in life and i'm starting completely over. at times i feel like i'm too old to start over from scratch....friends, a job, a relationship. thanks for keeping my spirits up!!
It's not too late for you to start again.. Cheer up!
