As we grow older and are exposed to the world more and more, we understand that things are not as simple as we thought they would be. Growing up in a protected environment with our families teaches us values but as soon as we enter our 20s, we understand how different each person can grow up to be.
There are certain experiences that every woman has gone through commonly, maybe not at the same time but surely once in their lifetime. Here are a few things that every woman learns in her 20s.
Grades don’t matter as much as your hustle
Throughout your life, you are told to work hard, keep up with school work so that you pass with flying colors (good grades). This ends soon after you complete your education and discover that good marks can only take you so far.
Staying up late till night is overrated
Gone are the days when we used to stay up and chat with our girlfriends (and boyfriends) but still managed to show up to classes. With age, we grow weary of this habit and understand how truly important is sleeping on time.
Having a pet is blissful but comes with responsibility
Adopting a pet truly transforms your life and teaches you a thing or two about responsibility and at the end of the day, it is all worth it.
You will always have a love-hate relationship with your every job
No matter how good your company may be, you will always be switching between bad days and good ones.
Each friend of yours will be at a different stage in life
While some may be busy traveling around the world, some of your friends will get hitched and some may change the city. Every friend will be at different stages of life and you can only wish the best for them.
Your girlfriends are your true treasure
The friendships that have been witness to your growth, pain, and revival, are the ones that you will cherish for life.
