I turned 29 on June 10th. Apparently, I now have the option of remaining 29 from this year forward.
I will be 30 next year.
This past year has been one of the best of my life. Since turning 28, I had the best baby boy in the world (no bias, of course) and sold my first novel. I have been dreaming of doing both of those things for as long as I can remember.
So why wouldn’t I claim a year that was so full of life?
If I do not turn 30 next year, it will be because I have not fully lived the next year.
