The Big 3 - 0

I'm 30 today. Happy birthday to me. I don't feel older, I don't feel wiser, I don't feel sad for the expiration of my 20s. I feel good about getting to 30 and knowing that while I know myself far better than ever before and understand my stake in the world much more, I still know barely anything at all and there is a whole universe of things to learn about out there for me to explore.

Here's to 30 being better than 29. Here's to the instant legitimacy which 30 lends that 29 could never have. Here's to always being interested in the world and retaining the curiosity of a child at any age.
