You can't get the years back, man. Do it now.

I share this point of view that we should live like we can die today - will I be satisfied enough? We really could meet a terrible end by accident - anyone who drives, crosses streets, leaves the house at all basically - we do NOT know the future. All this could be pulled from us in a single heartbeat. Today, I have to admit - I would be satisfied enough. I have done, so far, what is in my power to do. I have goals and I hope to complete them - but physically, financially, all that would be fine. Emotionally, Mentally, Spiritually - I have started caring for myself (roughly 1-2 years experience with finding me and truly BEING the real me, as best I can). Sobriety is a "be here now" program and combines that with "do the next right thing" - - this is a program for living, for me. I am about as satisfied with my personal growth as I've ever been - or at least, in a very long time (pre-2000). iceman - we really do only get ONE shot at our life. I hope you will grab your future by the horns and do like bballgirl advises, go find your happiness. We all deserve it, each and every one. |

Find the courage! Search for it then go find your happiness!!
I completely understand, saying I want a divorce was the toughest thing I ever did but for once I had to put me first for once.
I was in a very bad car accident several years ago, I could have died, that definitely has influenced my outlook on life. You only have one life and nobody knows even from day to day so make the most of it!!

If today is the last day, that's fine. I did what I wanted to do. I never expected to make it this far....

My ex missus (we split in Oct 09) died suddenly of natural causes in April 15.
That sure was a jolt.
For lots of people, me included.
-
Like you Brother iceman, I have pondered on "think about what if I died now. Would I feel that I've had a happy and productive life?".
-
I think I could possibly answer that with a yes today.
I don't think I could have back in 09.
