Currently Playing: I Keep Waiting For My Life To Start

I keep waiting for my life to start. I'm 34 and I still feel like I'm waiting for my real life to begin, like the last ten years were just the part before it starts. It used to be something specific I was waiting for. Meet someone, start a family, some big change. Now I'm still waiting but I can't even name what for anymore. Just a feeling that the real thing hasn't happened yet. My days are full, that's not the problem. Work, the house, the dog, the errands. Full and empty at the same time, because none of it counts as the thing I'm waiting for. I got a dog a while back and it's been genuinely great, but it didn't fill the part I'm talking about. It made me realize what I'm actually missing isn't small. Everyone else seems to have started already. House, kids, a life that looks like a life. I don't feel bitter about it, just behind, like a train left and I never got on. And the scary thought is this: in ten years am I going to feel exactly the same way, and regret the whole decade I spent waiting? What if there's no start coming? What if this is it, and I've been treating my life like a waiting room? What are you still waiting to start? And what if it already did? Subscribe if this hit home.
