Colour me Silver!
I am turning twenty five in less than twenty four hours. I am suddenly realizing how big a number twenty five is. I am a matured, responsible girl but do I feel 25? No. But then, how would I know what it feels like to be 25?
It's like a whole new phase of life is unfolding. I no longer fit into the adamant teenager, rebellious young adult tag, even though I am still adamant and rebellious. I suddenly feel old and weird, but I am sure it's a passing thought.
I want to randomly list the 25 things I have learnt in life to read when I am 50. :P The list is as follows:

I want to randomly list the 25 things I have learnt in life to read when I am 50. :P The list is as follows:
- Nothing in life will go as planned. Not even this list.
- Everything happens for the best. No matter what.
- People come and people go. Those who have to stay will stay with no conditions attached.
- You might not get everything you expect. But you will definitely get everything you deserve.
- Karma is a bitch. You can run, you can hide but Karma will get to you.
- Being grateful about waking up everyday gives life a new meaning.
- Don't over fill your plate. Serve as much as you can eat.
- Trust everyone to hurt you. You will not be disappointed.
- Every difficult situation is a change wanting to happen to your life.
- New beginnings are easier than we think they are.
- Memories are overstated.
- Emotions have meaning only when reciprocated.
- Somethings happen for no reason. Absolutely no reason.
- Living in denial won't change a situation. Acceptance will.
- I can and I will. Optimism never killed anyone.
- Nobody is indispensable except family.
- Have a new set of goals every once in a while.
- Learn. Everyday.
- Try. Before saying no.
- Anger makes me do things I regret. I do not like to regret.
- My happiness solely depends on me.
- Fear is over hyped. It can be overcome.
- It is important to be selfish and greedy sometimes, even though we are taught otherwise.
- Assumption destroys. Clarify.
- Love. Unconditionally.
A lot has happened over the past one year, I can't wait to see what life will unfold for me this year. I have a feeling, this will be a big year in terms of personal relationships. I am excited and nervous.
I wanted to take part in the A-Z challenge this year as well, but I am travelling for most part of the month and I have no time at work to write posts in advance and schedule them.
I definitely want to blog more often this year, I will strive to make it happen. That's my birthday promise to myself. :)
It's all gonna be amazing..! You seem to be an amazing girl..! advance Happy birthday :)
