You're Never Too Old To Live The Life That You Want
“Ten years from now, you will have wish you would had started today!”
Anyone who knows me knows that I HATE…I mean, I HATE with every fiber of my being, WASTING TIME.
I do not, for the life of me, understand how anyone can waste time doing NOTHING.
You had BILLIONS of years of doing nothing, and you will have an eternity after you DIE of doing nothing (I am an agnostic atheist, so I think once we are dead, lights out, game over).
The insane temerity to live this life, wasting it away in NOT pursuing your dreams, goals, aspirations, and purposes in life is absurd to me.
Dreams all come to us at different moments in life.
Life is not a goddamn race. Life is a marathon.
Some people know immediately once their consciousness awakens in them at the age of 5 or maybe even younger, what they want to do with their lives.
Others know when they enter their teenage years.
Others when they are young adults in their twenties.
And for some, they realize in their thirties what and who it is that they want to be.
I have found that once people reach a certain age, they QUIT on even trying to pursue any form of success because they feel as if they should have started their dreams in their younger years.
They will be in their mid-30s to 40s and feel like failures, and for the next forty years or more (or less) that they live, they waste it on FEELING SORRY FOR THEMSELVES for "a life" that seemingly is lost.
And this is MADNESS to me.
Why?
Because you're never too old to live the life that you want.
You're Never Too Old To Live The Life That You Want
When you look at a human lifespan, what the hell is 30 years, 40 years, 50 years relative to…
ETERNITY.
We are children, less than children to eternity.
So what you didn't figure out what it is that you wanted to do with your life by the age of 30 or 40 or even 50.
LIFE gets in the way and blinds all of us to why we are here.
Life gets in the way and makes us doubt, question, reevaluate what it is that we are all here for.
Life makes us lose track of our purposes and why we even came here.
Yes, it is not a good feeling to be in your 30s or 40s to only then realize what the hell you want to do with your life.
But damn it…
If you have 40 more years to live, are you just going to waste them away?
Are you just going to wallow in a “pit of pity,” thinking about all the years you wasted behind you while simultaneously wasting the many years you have in front of you?
No matter how old you THINK you are, you are nothing but a CHILD compared to eternity.
And if your dreams finally awaken and come to you in your midlife, FREAKING ANSWER THEM.
Because dreams that are not answered in your life turn to nightmares on your deathbed.
And I promise you this; they are not going to sympathize with you on your deathbed; they will PUNISH YOU and TORTURE YOU with regret for not giving them life when they came to YOU and no one else.
You are never too old to accomplish the dreams that have been given to you.
You are never too old to refind the purpose that brought you to this reality.
And you are never too old to live the life that you were meant to live.
We get ONE SHOT at life, and I don't know about you, but for me, I sure as hell am going to live the life that I know was meant for me.
