having a random episode of being really anxious and afraid of already being and getting old
weird, quite unlike me
Discussion
Ageing is like Bitcoin it has its up and down but at the end of the day it's worth the ride
Take a deep breath and enjoy the ride
yeah, that's true 🙏
i atleast now know what i like to do and want to pursue in life, so i'm at peace atleast in some regards
Age is an attitude. Own it.
huh, how so?
My wife and I are in our 40s having a fifth baby in 5 months. Most people think we’re crazy. I’m surfing with three of my kids, my wife looks better than she ever has. We are happy, healthy, poor in monetary terms, but wealthy in others.
The number does not mean shit. It’s our attitude and approach to life. You’re in your twenties, right? Your healthy? You have some friends? You seem pretty smart.
Get out there and grab the life you want. Chase the stories that have yet to be told.
i guess it's also a lot of the "grass is greener" thinking on my part 😅
happy to hear how lovely and fortunate your family have it, makes me smile 🤗
thank you by the way, this touched me
Yeah, it’s tough to see when you’re young. I needed someone to tell me too. I learned it a little late.
You’re going to be alright Tanel.
🫂💜
🫂 felt that before as well. it's not about the destination, but the journey. but I'm sure you already have heard that lol.
it's scary and exciting. thinking about the friends I'll gain, and lose. love i hope to find, and giving love to those who are already around me. the wisdom and perspective I can work to acquire! and to remember the NOW too! it'll be all good 🤙🏼
i guess a lot of it has to do with the delusion everybody has, that they are special and destined to greatness, which the social media also pushes a lot.
coming to terms with a lot of stuff as of late
ah I see what you mean. I guess it comes down to how you choose to define greatness. there's a lot pushed from social media about fitness/health, wealth, career focus bullshit, art, music, etc.
it's easy to feel small when being exposed to such algorithmically curated and often VERY GENUINELY talented people.
I find it important for me to surround my self with VERY GENUINE people. whether that's the homies on nostr dropping GMs and shakas, or family and friends for a meal or walk/drive.
was it you who was working towards your drivers license?
sending love fren 🫂
i guess a lot of it has to do with the misalignment on my part regarding my actions and work ethic, and my goals.
furthermore i think my impatience is doing me a disservice, trying to do everything at once
sending love back buddy
and yes, it was me regarding the driver's license. completed the theory part, but due to how expensive the rest of it is, i'll have to postpone the rest of it until i have the funds to continue my driving school
lmao i’ve felt that multiple times recently, but being old is a blessing, we get more days on this interesting thing called life 🥲🩷
swear you're younger than me 😄
i think i sometimes think about how fast time goes by, my priorities and values and what would i like to do with the rest of it that i have left
girl not even, we’re probably the same age
i hope you find the balance btwn what you care about and the time you have left, which i feel like it’s a lot probably
The best is yet to come. 🫂🌅
