Your turn

It’s your turn.

This a common phrase when we play games with friends or family.

These words typically come out when we don’t pay attention and are somewhere else in our minds or are doing something else.

This time it’s about the game of life.

It’s your turn from the moment you’re born. The moment you enter this world, it’s your turn to start breathing independently, to grow and develop.

It is your turn to transform yourself from a helpless baby fast forward to a young adult now taking on the world — another step toward independence.

Before you know it, it’s your turn to figure out how to make a living for yourself, grow yourself and contribute to the growth of this beautiful planet of ours.

Hopefully, you’re prepared, but you never can fully prepare.

Life takes turns as well.

When you think you have it all figured out, a curve ball is thrown at you, and the process starts over again. Your turn again.

There are many turns in life, and you can’t prepare for all of them. It’s always good to expect the unexpected so you can adapt when needed, but that doesn’t mean you have an immediate answer to every situation.
