To our younger members I give some advice...develop some kind of plan for your future.  It's said a lot but can't be stressed enough, you don't want to reach your mid 30s and look around and realize you have done nothing worthwhile.  It sucks.

I can echo this. If you DO have a plan or dream, don't be afraid to follow it, no matter what it is. It's your life and you should do whatever and be whoever you want. Take it from someone who woke up one day at 29 realizing she hasn't done anything with her life, including the one thing she wanted since she was 12 or 13, and is still stuck in a body she hates that feels like a bad rental car, because other people told her it's wrong and put pressure on her to conform. I wish I had known what I know now at 18, things would have been a lot different. Life is too short. Whether it be something as radical as what I'm currently doing or as mundane as taking a walk around the neighborhood a couple times per week, like Nike said, JUST DO IT.

Have to move again. Ugh. Its all stupid so I wont get into any details about it. But this time its just gonna be me, my mom, brother, his fiance, and dog going up to Cleveland, that's all I can say for now. So I wont be active for 2 weeks tops x.x Gonna miss you guys Tongue I'll still be able to reply on my phone at least just not post any pictures and stuff for awhile. I'll be close to some of you up there at least though Tongue Those of you if you want you can add me on Facebook, PM me if you want my real name. That way we can all schedual saber hang outs and stuff Tongue would be fun for sure and much needed fun for me after awhile x.x
Be well. We'll be here when you return.

I'm gonna have to disagree with this logic. I believe the #1 cause of mid-life crises is unfulfilled plans. Not being "where you should be", not having "what you thought you would." There is NO standard issue for success in life. I say if you're still alive at 30, count your blessings and carry on, because tomorrow is not promised. So why stress out over something that you cannot foresee, cannot control, and cannot guarantee. I'm not necessarily saying YOLO, but don't live for days that may or may not come.

Perhaps there is that delicate fine line of discernment where one is aware that today's thoughts and actions are collectively contributing to possible future outcomes both near and farther away.  One that does not have to primary rely upon the kind/generous graces from others... but is more autonomous and specific to the individual and their personal beliefs, desires, visions and goals.

Even if your life is pure happiness, i think you always have regrets ... I think that human kind is like that.


I am lucky enough to have all that i wanted (family, job ...) but now that i am 40, i am thinking about all the choices i made and i have some regrets ...

I think that it is very difficult to be satisfy ...

Exactly. I'm 36. And by life expectancies for my region, that actually puts me in the middle-aged category. I'm divorced with no kids, working a semi-crappy job. Not exactly what I was hoping for. But I have supreme faith the "Force" will place me where I am needed. So if I am here, that is where I am supposed to be. And if I am supposed to be thrust into greatness, history will make it so. No use crying over not doing anything that will change the world.
