Have I hit my quarter life crisis?

They say it happens! Men and women between the ages 25-30 years old could potentially hit a quarter life crisis. Work, school, relationships, etc could all play a part in this. Now, after a lot of changes in my life, I am beginning to wonder...Am I having a quarter life crisis?

It sounds silly. Having a crisis at 25, but 25 years old is the average age people start "settling" into their zone. They are finished or completing school,  find their career, moving into their first home, meeting "the one", having children, etc. The only thing I am completely sure of at this point of my life, is my relationship. I know the person I am with is The One and I have no doubts or insecurities  about that. In fact it feels like a relief that I am absolutely positive about something. Other than my relationship though, I feel like I am stuck in a stale fog that I so eagerly want out of.

A few years ago, when I was overweight, I was depressed(although I didn't know I was depressed, until I started losing the weight). I was a homebody. All I wanted to do was just hang out at home. I didn't want to go anywhere, or do much. Now that I have lost the weight, that has completely changed. I am a social butterfly and love talking and meeting new people. I also have no problem standing up for myself, or speaking my mind. Unlike the "Old me" a few years ago. The old Cathy used to let people say or do whatever they pleased, and I would just accept it.

Now that the new Cathy is out of her shell, I am beginning to see all of the options I have at my fingertips. I used to have a deathly fear of flying, and was perfectly okay with staying in my small town, if travelling required anything else but a Car, bus, train...Basically anything that wasn't on wheels. Although I am still quite nervous to fly, I have this sudden, intense urge to travel, and I'm willing to put fear aside to quench my travelling thirst.

One door closes, another one opens? Never in my life did I think I would have such a passion or interest in health. Did I think I would have an intense interest in mind, body and soul? NO! Again, now that I am who I was meant to be, I have absolutely feel in love with the Yoga Practice. Incorporating Yoga into my schedule daily, sometimes Morning, noon and night! Now, I even have the itch to teach. Is a new Yoga Teacher about to emerge into the scene?

My hair. Yes I know, it sounds so minimal compared to all that I have mentioned above, but nonetheless it is a dramatic change. I have had long, straight brown hair for years. I'm sick of it! And there was a time, I couldn't imagine cutting my hair. But was that because it was the one thing I was confident about during that time of my life? Probably! So many thoughts have crossed my mind. Chop it off, get a perm, dye it...Either way, I am ready for a change, and I feel like I could just wing it, and I'd be happy with the results.

So, does this sound like a crisis to you? I'm not sure if it is a severe as some crises' that other folks have dealt with, but crisis or not, I am ready for change!
