High school and college went by slow, partly because I take no interest in schooling. My first recollection of wising I was in grade school was when I first entered the workforce and realize all the good, the bad, and the politics that came with being a part of that environment.
The major and minor memorable events in our lives is what provides us with a timestamp and a reference point of where we are now, where we have been, how far we have been, whether the events that took place over that time period is acceptable.
Question is should I be where I am now? Am I comfortable about my situation given the time that's been invested, and do I feel comfortable with the time I have left to achieve the things I want to achieve in life? I believe so. I came to this world with nothing, and I'm very grateful to be where I am today. Focus on the things you're able control in life. Live life in the moment before it passes you by.
I'm at the age where I do not enjoy going out on work days or when I have to work the following day. I enjoy the comforts of my own home. I actually enjoy cooking and doing laundry, never thought I'd say that but I do. I enjoy the odd time when I have company over. I enjoy spending money on travelling than on material things in life. My gripes I've had in my younger days over family situations have faded over time, and slowly learn to let go and adjust my feelings not just to make myself feel better but those who I care about around me.
As time moves forward and I age it has somehow opened the doors and allowed me to see things from an angle I never would've seen before. For the things in life that I can't control I tend to laugh about it, whereas before if something happens or someone says something that does not align with my thoughts and feelings I'd jump in right away and make my position known. Fact is you cannot make everybody in life see and do things your way, and that's alright.
