running out of time

There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to tear down and a time to build,

a time to weep and a time to laugh,

a time to search and time to give up,

a time to tear and a time to mend,

a time to be silent and a time to speak,

Is there a shortage of time or just a shortage of vision?

Many people in their 20-somethings feel the pressure of "running out of time". Why? Is this my one chance for adventure? Is there an age of life that is more exciting than the last or than the next? When i was 7, it was an adventure to play in the backyard. There was an adventure awaiting within my imagination. When i was 13, it was an adventure to navigate the confusing ride of middle school. phew. 16, ordering my first pizza on the phone (scary!). 18, going to college, 22, getting married, 24, loving a growing family (cats, in-laws, nieces). these are all seasons that are sweet and bitter in their own way.

I am going to be 25 this April.

when do the adventures stop happening? i hope never.
