Regarding me.

As this year approached, the year I leave my 20s,
I thought it was going to be terrible, oh no I'm aging, etc.
However, as of the past few years something has happened.
For the first time I feel like that I'm FINALLY learning from my mistakes.
And learning to avoid them.
As stated before, I'm sure I'll be able to think up all kinds of brand new stupid,
but am finally learning to stop doing a lot of old stupid.
And the odd thing is, that this didn't come about directly from the mistakes.
I didn't do something stupid, hit the 1000th time and go "hey that's dumb, quit it"
Take relationships and friendships for example.
I've had a lot of bad ones, I've made a lot of bad choices,
and I kept repeating them.
It wasn't until I had good friendships and relationships.
(and/or just accepted that I've now had friends over a decade who aren't going anywhere)
I think it's the comparison, the good *ships contrasted with the bad,
seemingly suddenly developed the ability to notice things in a different light.
I don't know if I'm expressing this properly.
Just happy that I get to finally leave a bunch of stupid behind,
make way for more stupid, and fun, and happy and sad and ... morelife.
yaylife.
