Why are so many people in their 20s taking so long to grow up?

haha. i was talking about “growing up” with two friends last night. when i finally get around to reading this, i’ll write more. until then, it’s worth sharing. : )

Eric Weiner in “Chapter 10: America - Happiness is Home” in The Geography of Bliss: One Grump’s Search for the Happiest Places in the World.

Weiner is commenting on “the problem…with many of us Americans and our perpetual pursuit of happiness.” He mentions that America is an optimistic nation, and because of this, we are transient - always searching for something else that will make us happy.

I find this generalization to be true in my case - I am optimistic, I think that there is something, some place, better than where I am now, and have one foot out the door in life and in love.

A few years ago, I was fully committed to Boston. My disposition changed and I was in a rut and didn’t know the “right” thing to do. The three weeks abroad observing different countries’ cultures has tapped into this urge to travel. I’ve suppressed it for years because I didn’t have a purpose - a job, an internship - but the more I think about it (I know, the irony of thinking too much!), the more I know that this is what I need to do for me and my pursuit of happiness.

Thank you, Eric Weiner, for an entertaining and educational read. : )
