Root of All Problems= Society?

What if time-lines didn't exist?
What if we all ignored societies expectations and lived in the moment?



As women we have a ticking time-bomb from age 16. There's the sweet sixteen party, then there's prom, high school/college sweetheart (maybe), career, marriage by 30, white picket fence equipped with a baby and a dog, and finally happily ever after? At what point does the bomb explode?

I mean really, who makes this stuff up? Who say down and said if you don't have a certain thing by a certain age you aren't living life? It's all still so bizarre to me that if you haven't obtained these things at the designated time slot, you might as well move outer space for being an alien.

There's so much pressure in regards to life and it's stepping stones. You don't wanna live too fast, but you most definitely don't wanna move to slow. There has to be a happy medium which accommodates every spectrum of your life. You only get one make it count.

Who said you had to have all of your ducks in a row by 25? I've driven myself crazy with the notion of predetermined growth. Like all things are supposed to fall into place and make sense in your twenties (nope). Like my decisions are minute compared to someone else's idea of a pleasant life. As long as you are pursuing what matters should be the real focus right?

Why can't we humans just live and forget about numbers, clocks and times? Your age should not dictate what you can and can't do. Why can't we all just be in the present and revel in it? Forget what society expects "average" people to acquire and create your story in history.

This is my canvas, Imma paint it how I wanna baby
