This is beautifully written.

As growing adults is okay for our lives to be a mess. We're all figuring life out.

Thanks for sharing this Michell

Hey Mitchell, thanks for this write up, I'm also 27 currently going through all that you've described, I feel so lost and yarn for deeper meanings in life. Everyday just seem to be the same and nothing changes, it's scary.

Thank you for sharing this. At 29, I’m experiencing and learning what you’ve shared. Through the hardship, I have a feeling in a few years, I’ll look back and say something similar to myself.

Just imagine how much more you’ll have to tell him ten and twenty and thirty years down the line. My worst depressive period was around 28 and I’ve had tough times since (I am 43) but also so much richness and growth and beauty and joy.

This is beautiful! I’m in my late 28 and I really feel so lost , wanna change but the feeling of tiredness, lost, no motivation doesn’t help too much. But this help me realize I still need help !

Thank you !
