What You Waiting For?

Do you ever feel that you are putting your life on hold for something, whatever that may be?

Life is short, time passes.

Now I'm in my mid-forties, I'm starting to think that it's time to enjoy myself a little while I can.

always in motion is the future.
its been made a cleche' out of since the first time it was said, but it remains true.
its not random but it is statistical.
what is dumb is not looking far enough beyond the box of what we're familiar with,
because whether we do or not,
the universe we live in, does.
i'm not waiting for anything literally, but i do have major serious anxiety problems,
and i'm not going around begging people to let me kill myself for them.
especially not, when i can see that its not, going to produce the kind of world,
i want to live in.
i think something will, but it does take all of us, and it takes doing so without hate,
without the excuses of belief and ideology, for standing in each other's way.

enjoying myself. that i am doing, and i'm not doing so by going through consumer motions,
because for me, doing so would do nothing i enjoy.

if it does for someone else, fine, that's them.
i'm me. and i'm the only me that is me.

 

Yes exactly. I came to that realization years ago and i've never been the same since.

 

My wife and I are putting off having kids so that we don't have to give up travelling.

 

Your life is never just yours, when you have a family, you can't just, get up and go, sometimes it's like, your only a part of a life that is your family.
Sometimes, that life starts to change, sometimes, not at the same time as the other lives, within that life.
That's where I got! The children left, and the life in that family was never going to be the same, then, one life, settled, the other wanted the new previous ideas and thoughts for this time...not going to happen!
So for the first time in my life, I changed my life, I took the bit between the teeth, and I changed my life!
First year was hard, I'm not saying it was easy, but two years on! I love life all again..I love singleton. It's never too late to change! Believe me!

I am not some punk kid.

I am Obi-Wan's son.

 

Nah, he bad a daughter, bet ya they make Rey his daughter

 

Travel isn't the Be All and the End All in my view.

You might be interested in this book, I've heard about it, and may get a copy myself sometime:

I didn't mean travel..I meant in life, in making a single choice!
It isn't your choice to do anything, unless it's just you! Get me now?

 

when i was younger i used to worry about chronic hysteresis, you know, getting stuck in a time loop by going to the wrong place with the wrong people at the wrong time.
its still a horrible thing i wouldn't want ever to have happen.

i wait for knowing what the hell i'm doing so i don't screw everything up for everyone else, but that's not something i spend my whole life doing, because i don't just sit and wait to know, i explore and test safely and find out.

 

That's harsh news JT. What's wrong?

 

ecopocalypse. don't know if its still possible to avoid. very possible to not happen before i'm already dead though.
its actually 20 or 30 years after its over with i'm interested in, and my odds being no better then anyone else's,
and worse do to age, very unlikely i'll see in this lifetime.

anyone under 30 reading this, roll a 1, 2, or 3 on a 20 sider.

 

I have only just a minute,
Only sixty seconds in it.
Forced upon me, can’t refuse it.
Didn’t seek it, didn’t choose it.
But it’s up to me
to use it.
I must suffer if I lose it.
Give account if I abuse it.
Just a tiny little minute,
but eternity is in it.

By Dr. Benjamin E. Mays

 

Thanks for asking newbie-one.

It's mainly down to years of smoking. Apparently I may have twenty years if I quit now.

I think I'll try hypnosis to quit, I've tried everything else.
