Some days I sense death looming over me and time passing by. It feels like an invisible monster gradually consuming my life forces. Anyone else know the feeling?

As we get older, that monster time gets closer.
Enjoy life, love, laugh, worry not.
When old enough that monster may become your friend.
awwe Yee buddy!
Honestly, no, I wouldn't say I've ever felt quite that way, but I appreciate your willingness to share that, so I'll share my own.
I take the approach that the world is a giant amusement park, and I want to ride all the rides. Definitely a big kid (54 years old) that works hard, plays hard, and follows every path that seems like a fun, challenging adventure.
I always know that time is slowly running out, but I plan to live to 105, so I'm about halfway. I try to enjoy each day while building a better me.
As I get older, my bucket list is getting shorter, but it's still quite long.
I have no plans to slow down as I age, unlike most.
I believe our will to live will play a significant role in determining our fate. If you live with passion and gratitude, and maintain your wonder and curiosity, you'll live closer to your full potential.
I just closed a business after almost 19 years. I now have a clean slate, no idea what comes next, staring completely over again. I love doing that. I've done it many times.
You're always one decision away from a whole new life. I remind myself of that every day. At any moment of any ordinary day, we can decide it's time to start again and go in a new direction, toward a new horizon. It takes courage to make those big changes, but a life worth living always does.
Death is coming for all of us, eventually, but I believe more people give up at some point. The Grim Reaper will have to fight me for it. I won't go quietly.
Thanks for sharing, that's incredible insight and I truely needed this right now 🫡
I hope it helps in some small way.
So many people worked their entire lives and sacrificed so much to give you and I this opportunity. We didn't earn it. It was their gift to us.
Honor them by cherishing their gift and making the most of every day. That's something I never forget.
I live to honor those who gave me everything.
Yes, after being here for quite sometime and having done quite a few things I feel like I’ve done what had to/wanted to do, and there’s nothing else in it for me, as I look in all directions seeking a signal and nothing picks my interest. So it starts to feel like death/the end approaching.
