Adult-hood

Tackling adulthood's challenges head on

Today, I had to turn down an amazing apartment. The kind of apartment where you can see yourself living and loving for years to come. It was a though decision. One I would have rather not take. In fact, I kind of wanted someone - anyone - to guide me. To tell me what to do. But ultimately, the decision was mine and despite all the good things about this place, the timing just wasn't right and the money just wasn't there. Tough reality but my reality nonetheless. It got me thinking about the hardships of being an adult. As a child you have people making decisions for you. And whilst easy, this can bring about all kinds of frustrations. I remember thinking that I couldn't wait to be the boss of me, of my life, my choices. But now that I am, it's hard to take a decision and stick with it. To have no regrets and kind of hope that whatever you chose will be for the best. That's what it means, being an adult. For now, I'm not sure if I'm really good at it. But for better or for worst i'm in it and there's no way out. This is my hood. xox
