I know people who graduated college at 21, and didn't get a salary job until they were 27. I know people who graduated at 25 and already had a salary job. I know people who have children and are single. I know people who are married and had to wait 8–10 years to be parents. I know people who are in a relationship and love someone else. I know people who love each other and aren't together. There are people waiting to love and be loved. My point is, everything in life happens according to our time — our clock. You may look at your friends and some may seem to be ahead or behind you, but they're not. They're living according to the pace of their clock. So be patient. You're not falling behind, it's just not your time.
