20 Tragically Unexpected Truths You Learn In Your Twenties

3. You Still Don't Know What You're Doing

But your twenties are certainly not the time to panic. As Baz Luhrmann once said in his uplifting sunscreen track, some of the most interesting people you'll ever meet still don't know what they're doing in their forties.
