When I was 22 or 23, I met a friend of my brother's who had just turned 31. I asked her what it was like to be in her 30s, and she said it was awesome. She said, "You just don't worry about that 20-year-old bullshit anymore. You know who you are, you're not as afraid to speak up, you don't worry as much what other people think. It feels great." I'm now 35, and I think about that conversation a lot, and I mentally thank her for it. (Haven't seen her since.)
So, thank you so much for this insight. I'm honored to know you. :-)
