To the 28-year-old who's still searching for myself.

28 is a strange time.

It's not young anymore... but it's not stable enough to call ready.

Some days feel very good. Plan life step by step.

But some days still confused with my life

We began to understand that

Dreams don't have to be the same.

Something I really wanted.

I don't feel anything today.

One thing it feels like is pressure.

About money, jobs, the future.

The question "Which way will our lives go?"

It is loud in the head almost every day.

That's... maybe really growth.

# Grow up and know that

... Read moreเมื่อเข้าสู่วัย 28 ปี หลายคนอาจรู้สึกเหมือนกันว่าชีวิตกำลังอยู่ในช่วงเปลี่ยนผ่านและค้นหาตัวเองอยู่เสมอ วัยนี้ไม่เด็กแล้ว แต่ก็ยังไม่ได้มีความมั่นคงแบบเต็มร้อย เป็นช่วงเวลาที่เต็มไปด้วยความกดดันในเรื่องของเงิน การงาน และอนาคตที่ไม่แน่นอน ในฐานะคนหนึ่งที่เคยผ่านช่วงนี้มา ฉันพบว่าการยอมรับว่าความฝันและเป้าหมายของเราสามารถเปลี่ยนแปลงได้ เป็นสิ่งสำคัญที่ช่วยให้ใจสงบขึ้น จากที่เคยตั้งเป้าหมายชีวิตชัดเจน อาจมีบางอย่างที่เมื่อเวลาผ่านไป กลับทำให้เรารู้สึกไม่อยากเดินตามทางเดิมอีกต่อไป นอกจากนี้ การได้พูดคุยและแลกเปลี่ยนประสบการณ์กับเพื่อนหรือคนที่มีมุมมองใกล้เคียงกัน ช่วยให้เราไม่รู้สึกโดดเดี่ยวกับคำถาม ‘‘ชีวิตเราจะไปทางไหนต่อ’’ ที่วนเวียนอยู่ในหัว ความรู้สึกว่าไม่แน่นอนนั้นถือเป็นส่วนหนึ่งของการเติบโตจริงๆ ที่ทำให้เราได้รู้จักตัวเองมากขึ้น การวางแผนชีวิตแบบยืดหยุ่นและเปิดรับโอกาสใหม่นั้นสำคัญ เพราะบางครั้งเราต้องกล้าปล่อยความคาดหวังเดิมๆ เพื่อเปิดทางให้ตัวเองได้ค้นพบสิ่งใหม่ๆ ที่อาจเหมาะสมกับเรามากขึ้น ท้ายที่สุดแล้ว วัย 28 ปี คือช่วงเวลาที่เราเรียนรู้ที่จะให้อภัยตัวเองกับความไม่สมบูรณ์แบบ และยอมรับว่าเส้นทางชีวิตแต่ละคนแตกต่างกัน ไม่มีสูตรสำเร็จตายตัว และนั่นคือความงดงามของการเติบโตในยุคนี้

Job searching? These are my red flags… 🚩
Over the years I’ve seen a lot of things in job postings I don’t love, many of which have now become red flags for me. And usually I won’t even apply if I see any of these! For me, I want to apply to (& work for) companies that value me and don’t want to get the most bang for their buck.
