When I was younger,everything in my life seems to flow.
Now when I am 46,I still hope theres more time for me.
I’m 45. I’ve learned that I’m fine all by myself. Don’t need a dude. I wouldn’t be mad if I had a dude but I just don’t really care.
I’m 62, and things seem the same to me. I wrote a short story I am proud of. I’m hoping to write quite a few more. I’m diminishing physically fairly quickly. My lungs are deteriorating and I don’t smoke. They’ve given me an inhaler and antibiotics, and they work a little while, but then the wheezing comes back and I get winded very easily.
Solitude is so peaceful
I still wish that I would find some soulmate,who I can live with,but no problem if stay solo.
I’m happy to be by myself. I am 54 this year. Due to my age, I have accepted minor flaws about myself. Before, I was not happy with myself. I mellowed as I aged. I am calmer and kinder. I appreciate life more now than before.
Sorry to hear about your lung problem @crimby … I am still in my 30s and I smoke although less than before. Any idea why your lungs are acting up?
I love being alone and living alone. I’ve been alone in my new, totally cool apartment since February 19th and I’m like totally digging it.
And as all can tell, I’m older, and yes, life does have “more worth” or peace and tranquility as you get older.
“They waste the youth on the young”
It’s not a quote in spite of the young. Just saying , when you’re more ready for life you don’t emanate youth exactly.
The older i get,
the better i feel with my self.
I would have to agree with that. i think my illness has burned itself out , if that makes any sense, just for example there is nothing new about my symptoms and i can deal with it, also when depression hits hard it will eventually psss, dont know who said these wise words this too shall pass!
I think I did catch a lung disease by sitting in this guy’s smoke. He had one of the worst smoker’s coughs I’ve ever heard. That’s the only thing I can think of.
I found my soul mate two years ago. I am the happiest I’ve ever been. I dont feel I deserve to be happy, but I’m just running with it.
My daughter is a little older now and its an easier stage to be a mum. I guess i have it made. Im very grateful
Life isn’t without its challenges. I feel there would be a lot to say to a younger me, if I could send her a message in some way. I learnt so much the last few years.
If I could go back to the younger me I’d say it will get better. I thought it would never get better. The negative symptoms were crippling.
