Happy Birthday to Me, I'm Feelin' 23!

Happy Wednesday everyone! I don't know about you, but I'm no longer feeling 22! You know I had to go there ;) Today I turn the big 2-3 and boy does that number excite me. I'm in my twenties, y'all! For a while 23 scared me. I knew so many people who were settled by 23, successful by 23, changing the world by 23 and in comparison I felt way behind (ah, those dangerous words -in comparison- they get me every time). I mean, come on, Leo and Kate were filming TITANIC at 23! So what am I doing? How am I making waves and rocking the boat? I'm stepping out into the water in full faith, or I hope to every day I'm able, trusting God that year 23 will be the best year yet. Who's excited? I know I am!

    Happy Birthday!

    I had a freak out at 25 because I thought I was supposed to have life figured out by an age. Reflecting back, I realize how silly that was. I wrote about that journey here. http://www.alismithtx.com/2014/06/23/birthdays/

    A great book to read about life in your twenties is Bittersweet by Shauna Niequist. And its only 99 cents for the kindle version today on amazon. Seriously so good! I read it four times while 25 and freaking out about life.
