Quarter life crisis...part deux

I just realized that this year, I'll be in what I consider to be my mid-twenties. It's a terrifying thought. Especially with a friend's father ailing, and three other people I know under 30 dying of leukemia. So sad.

I feel a sudden need to accomplish more and faster. And do good. Because I'm dying a little every day like everyone else, and if I were to suddenly kick the bucket without warning, I'd like to have left behind something. Even a small something. A few great memories, or a certain feeling. Maybe this is just my desire to be significant somehow, like pretty much every person desires.
