A friend of mine just had his birthday yesterday. He was happy to have his birthday, but also frighten to go into the next phase of his life. Why? Because, yesterday he was officially pass the number “30”, a number which is so sacred for people that never past it. But not to them who had passed it long time ago. Yea, just like me. I past that number … 6 years ago. Hahaha … it is how old I am.
But it was just fine by me, being a 30s something single [upzz] woman is truly an incredible adventure. And passing that number was just a phase where I had to realize that I’m no longer a girl. That I have to be able to manage my mind into focusing on something real, no longer imagining things that can only be dreams.
And passing that number is not only made me get into the grown-up group, but also made me a member of a group where people with adult way of thinking should be in. Yes … an adult way of thinking, I question myself at that time what is this mean. I tried to find out what it is, and end up with no definite answers. Then I stop to search, and end up understanding it by going through my days in this adventure of being an adult.
Actually it is not that hard for being an adult. I just have to open up my horizon and try to see things clearly from a far. Yes, clearly … it means to see not only the distinct things; but also things that hidden in the same scene. Slowly but sure I learnt how to see all details, up to the smallest details in front of me, or actually all around me – front, back, top and bottom. And this can only be done by seeing things in many perspective way of understanding. Heavy isn’t it. To be frankly, yes it is. But that’s just what I have to accomplish, not by rushing things up, but by getting through it naturally.
So, back to my friend again, he is 30 now. Have a good settled job, good earnings. But, he has no girlfriend. For him this is sucks [excuse my language, but it is like that to him]. For him, passing the number “30” means he has to be settled in all ways, meaning having a good job and being a family man. To be a husband of a beautiful wife [it’s a must for him], and will be better if there is/are a child/children to be involve. But come to think of it, this is hard thing to accomplish for him, concerning that there is no girl whose good enough for him in his life.
In this case, I can only give my friend one suggestion. What he needs to do is to be surrender to the universe. This means completely surrender, with no doubts. Just puts his trust to the universe, then the universe will guide him to the point where he will find the perfect one for him. But perfect not means the most perfect from the other, it means the most fitted one for him.
I gave him this suggestion, because that was what I do after passing the number “35”, another phase of my adventure. And this condition of being completely surrender has brought me to the point where I found and being found by a perfect and most fitted “one” for me.
