Until I Find You

Until I Find You  is a big novel following the life of the main character Jack Burns starting from the age of four. Jack survives a chaotic and dramatic childhood of being lied to and abused. Many years later he comes to realize that much of what he remembers is wrong. It isn't until he reaches adulthood that he is able to start putting it all together in order to put it all behind him and open himself up to things he could have never imagined.

I'm 30 now and 30 doesn't feel like I imagined it would at 15. There's really not much excitement in turning 30.  Being 30 really isn't hip like how they say 40 is the new 30 and 60 is the new 40  (of course these are said mostly by people in their 40's and 60's), but 30 is still the same old 30.

A person's 20's is a celebrated time of coming into adulthood, and being completely independent.  They are called young professionals, where as in any other age it simply called having a job.  The twenties are a time where people feel free to go and find themselves.  By 30 is you haven't found yourself yet you're likely lost forever.

The thirties are the least glamorous, the Jan Brady of ages. There's nothing interesting about them. You can't get away with being young and care-free, but far from being old and wise. A person's 30's are all about work, whether it's working to establish ourselves at a job, raising a family, improving ourselves, or to overcome the obstacles set before us.  It's 10 years of raising kids, 10 years of the daily grind, and hopefully only 10 years of paying off the debt we racked up in our twenties.
