My Birthday Speech
Today I’m turning 24 and I’m having the most peculiar birthday program ever. In the morning I was swimming in luxury pool in Las Vegas and now I am sitting in Los Angeles international airport waiting for Munich flight on my way back home.
The age of 23-26 years is named by many psychologists as “the quarter life crisis period”. In this period people usually try to find their own selves and understand the purpose of life for the years to come. I think psychologists have a point giving such a strong definition. But crisis doesn’t necessarily have to be long, does it?
It will be difficult to describe how many inner changes and broken stereotypes I’ve undergone during the last year of my life. Looking back I am tempted to think that the most important role in that process played a series of lucky incidents. All the people I’ve been meeting, all the books I’ve been reading, all the events I’ve been attending couldn’t be more in the right place and in the right time. Its incredible how what seemed spontaneous events can actually appear as well-planned self-development campaign over the time.
I think in many senses my eyes opened more widely in observing both the external world around me and my smaller personal world. The way I felt a year ago is nothing compared to how I feel now.
Here I would like to give my thanks to everyone who was helping me during the first 24 years of my life.
