I can tell you that I hated being in my 20’s. I started that decade, January 2000, having a breakdown on a bus when on my way to a morning class. I ended the decade in December 2009, recovering from a burst ovarian cyst that had burst on Christmas Day.
It wasn’t exactly a fun decade for me.
We’re all going through similar things at the moment. You at least have time on your side and put this year in the rear view mirror; you still have plenty of time on this planet left. Do you think I wanted to spend my 41st year like this? No I didn’t. I was fortunate to be able to have a decent 40th birthday party in January, about 6 weeks before everything locked down. And it’s looking increasingly like I will be spending my birthday on my own come the end of January.
