Being in your 20s is wack
Being in your twenties is wack. I want to be the kind of person who seeks adventure and has all these awesome stories. I want to live in different places, meet new people, explore different areas, but when I do, I don’t like it. I move to a new place and im scared and lonely, I am nervous about the area because it is new and I’m reluctant to meet new people cause that means being stuck in a place longer. What is wrong with me? I really wish I was an adventurous person, I really really want to be a fun twenty year old that does crazy things. So why is it so hard for me to actually do that?
@drzombienoodles there's nothing wrong with you sweetie ❤ I'm in my 20s too, and the thing I want to do most is be a explorer 😁 but I mean going to the beach, seeing a waterfall in the forest, being in top of a tall mountain, camping sleeping beneath the stars😁 maybe your aiming to big, you can still have a fantastic journey and do crazy things. But possibly moving from place to place is to much for you mentally. Try little adventures and enjoy yourself ❤❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤❤ I'd love to see photos and here your stories ❤

The first thing that comes to my mind after reading your post is: Excuse me, please, but are you trying to live your own life, or - speaking in computer terms - execute somebody's else program?
I still remember being 20, with the world seeming wide open, almost enormously, bringing so many opportunities. But maybe sometimes... less is more?
I agree that being a young and healthy adult, with no moral obligations: no spouse yet, no children, no mortgage is the greatest time to move from place and discover the world.
I can also imagine a pressure of being forced to become a "daring and successful 20+", but would that be the real you?
Some people fly abroad just to "show off" on social media, or to fend off their everyday frustrations with job and/or marriage, and contribute to the global pollution. Some of them go to India to look for spiritual awakening. Some of them are interested to meet some new people, different culture, other religions. Some of them are keen photographers, or are fond of art, architecture or animals.
But what makes _you_ travelling?
As Metallica sings "And the road becomes my bride. I have stripped of all but pride. But she keeps me satisfied. Gives me all I need..." - the road itself can be a target, too, getting to know myself better. Because some most important and sometimes most terrifying trips might be the journeys inside, to our present day, past and future.
What is _your_ road, Friend? 😊
