Mid-20 Roadmap

I can feel myself entering a new stage of my life. It’s called the mid-twenties life.

Until now life was a picnic. So many friends around. Friends who are always available at your beck and call. Before entering this stage of life, 2 things were of utmost importance – friends and career.

But as I move in this new era of my life, I can feel that there is a sudden change in the lives of my friends and myself. This change begins with the search of a life partner for oneself. Suddenly there is a shift of priorities. Life can no more be on the happy-go-lucky mode. Responsibility becomes the key to unlock further stages of life. You can slowly find your friends finding their life partners and getting married. Friends who were always available in all your fun or frown moments, plan and settle down in different parts of the world. Now meeting might probably be a distant dream.

At the same time, you find yourself a life partner. Make new friends; ofcourse just cannot replace your friends. But it marks a milestone for starting of a new journey. Family responsibilities becomes the new buzz word. Balancing personal life, which now includes your partner and his/her family, and the much wanted professional life, for which you have made thousands of sacrifices till now, becomes the biggest challenge.

It’s like taking rebirth in another family. Just that you will be having memories of your previous birth to cherish forever and probably times when you can relive those moments also.

Turning to a new page of the book named Life, it’s time when we rewrite some better stories and memories to cherish and share with all our loved ones.
