Birthday musing

Today I turn 27. Thinking about this birthday has been particularly difficult for some odd reason that I cannot name. The idea of being three years away from thirty is quite... hmm... frightening, daunting, depressing? I'm not quite sure which word describes it best. My good friend, A, reminded me tonight that she is seven years older than me. Interesting that I have never seen her as being particularly older or younger than me, but simply as a contemporary. I have always viewed us as simply travelling the road together, not as her being beyond me or me beyond her. I must say that I am so happy that I do have the friends that I have, they make the journey worth while.
