30 is not the new 20

A dear friend of mine sent this to me today, and I think it needs to be shared. Now solidly in my 30s, I can only hope that 20 somethings today will not continue to fall into the patterns described in this TED talk. In some respects I can relate to a lot of what was said, especially regarding relationships. Did I hang onto partners longer than I should have? Yes. Did I put up with behavior that should have been unacceptable? Yes. I do not think that I wasted my 20s as I truly strived to follow a path I believe was right for me, but I do feel at times I could have been moving forward when I was indeed stagnant.
