I'm almost 30. I don't feel 30 though, I still feel like a college kid. Although now I teach college.
A lot of my friends and I are turning 30 this year. They've been going out like ducks in a shooting gallery. BANG! 30. BANG! BANG! 30.30. BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! 30. 30. 30. 30. 30.
I finally understand what Dark Side Of The Moon is all about. It's about turning 30 but not feeling 30. You've been preparing for adulthood only to find that you are already an adult. Because now, you're 30. And it doesn't get any more adult than that. We all go through this. It's part of our collective human experience. There's a certain synchronicity to the fact that it was released 30 years ago this year and that I was born 30 years ago this year. An album about turning 30 that I love is turning 30 this year. Just like me.
All that you touch, all that you feel, all that you buy, beg, borrrow or steal, all you create, all you destroy, all that you do, all that you say, all that you eat, and everyone you meet, all that is now, all that is gone, all that's to come and everything under the sun is in tune but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.
I love that song in particular. All that your life will ever be is what you make of it.
Time is relentless.
Synchronicity is a good album too.

it's just 30, not that big a deal- I'll be 35 next week and that's fine. I don't want to live forever.
