Questioning Life's Societal Checklist

The cat an I are on the same page🐱🤮 This might be an unpopular opinion but I think living by the societal checklist of college, 9-5 job, marriage, house, kids is absolutely insane. If those are things that YOU want then that’s amazing! But why does everyone have to follow that? Life takes each of us on a different journey so why are we all trying to check the same boxes? If a “different” way of life is calling to you, follow it. Take it from me, you’ll meet resistance but once you’re past it you’ll feel better than you ever have. What’s one thing about your life that doesn’t fit “the norm?” Thanks @sightsofsara for seeing a perfectly timed moment here 🤪
