Stop comparing me to people me own age!

“What!? You still live at home?!”

“You are not married yet?!”

“You want to focus on your career?”

Sentences like this, whether they are about where you live, your job, your family, your relationship status etc., we hear them all the time. People in their twenties are supposed to build a life and that’s what we do, but your paths are different.

Some focus on traveling (I would, with enough money), some just finally want to earn real money (like me), others just want to build a family of their own and all that is fine. We are all individuals, we are unique and special and we make our own decisions, isn’t it about that?! So whether we focus on job or family, if it is the right thing for us, it’s good. The world would be boring, if we’d all do the same thing!

The most important thing is that you do what you love and what you want. You have to be happy with your life, so whatever you want to do you should do. It’s not wrong, if you want to focus on your job first. On the other hand, it’s also not wrong to want a family when your 20.

I’m sick and tired of being compared to other people my age! There is no right or wrong and we can make our own decisions. People don’t know the circumstances, so they should just be quiet. It’s not nice being compared to someone, who has more success or whatever, because we are all unique and have our own story to tell!

People should focus on their own things and not make other people feel bad about themselves. We have nothing to prove to anybody! In the end it’s YOUR life! Staying true to yourself should always be important. Stay strong, fight for what you want and don’t care what the others think, IT’S YOUR LIFE!!!!
