Thirty-five has a specific gravity to it that twenty-five and thirty don't quite have. It's the age where the rough draft of adulthood starts to feel like the final version. Most people turning 35 have figured out a few important things — what they actually like, which friendships are worth maintaining, roughly what kind of work suits them, which parts of themselves they're not changing. They have also let go of some of the things they thought would happen by now, and made a kind of peace with the shape of the life they have. The birthday gift for them is something that fits the person they actually are, not the person they were theoretically going to be.
