nono its not that i dont look forward to it, I like lifting again, throwing darts, hanging with the dog, all good stuff. But Im fine if it all ended now. I guess i should have worded it better. Im happy with shit but kinda wanna move on from this particular world

🤔 Hmmmm  - Yes I kind of feel that way , mainly because I don’t feel like I fit in with the world politics & opinions. More to the point I won’t & don’t want to fit in with the ever increasing Lefty/PC madness,
Fuck Them.
Ha, That’s why I stay & Fight Back / Rebel best I can in my own small way - I hope I live long enough to see the uprising & revolution/ civil war - so many out there that Need getting rid of .

I know your right mate and will probably find something else to occupy time when it comes around just can’t shake the feeling there’s nothing left after this but then again I though life may as well be over when first found out was having first kid so guess can come around to idea of most things haha

I hear ya haha. I’ll say having kids is the most depressing thing in the world. I don’t mean it the way it sounds as I love my kids more than anything but watching them grow so quick is depressing and quite sad as it just dates you quickly and you realize at some point you don’t matter anymore.

Bad feelings and bad times don't last forever.  You have to learn to ride out the bad times.  Live your life in cliches. It's always darkest before dawn. If you have food and a roof over your head you a way ahead of millions on earth.

 Read the book Spark by psychiatrist John Ratey. It's a bit dry but he points out how aerobic type exercise is good for the brain and mood. That has been know for a long time. Get some ear buds and go for a long walk every day. Bet you will feel better when you get home. An hour fast walk is like medicine

 If all is lost buy a wave runner. I guarantee you can't frown riding one. If it seems hopeless seek out professional help.

I saw on TV about how exercise along with mental stimulation at the same time is particularly good for the brain. So do some aerobics while listening to podcasts was what was suggested in the program.

I listen to music when I walk but I find many times I'm lost in my thoughts. The music at times is ignored. I wrote a short book that I wrote for my granddaughter. About 200 pages.  A chapter of what I hope would be entertaining fiction and chapters about my life that were non fiction. I got great ideas while walking.

I completely agree mate you describe perfectly the point they are now only seeing them when they emerge from their rooms for food. Feel like it’s gone by way too fast and kind of wish can live in those magical early years of their lives forever

As long as I’m healthy I’d prefer living.

This. I don't fear dying, but I am afraid of becoming seriously ill. Fortunately, Oregon has the death with dignity act. So, should that happen, I would have to option to end my life within the provisions of the law.

Hang in there long enough and you can go through it again with grandkids. I raised a son and money was tight and I couldn’t buy him as much as I wanted to.By the time I got financially secure he was grown.So along comes a grandson a few years ago and I take him to Walmart for a new toy every time I see him.His mom gets on me and I don’t care.

Yes..I often feel this way. I would like to see my kids grow up.. retirement will be fun I think..it's a mixed bag for me. I hate what American has become...that really gets me down though

Retirement is great. It gives me the freedom to decide each day what I want to do as opposed to what I had to do. It helps to have a decent retirement income.

Don't let the things you cannot control get you down.

You probably matter to your kids.

...And if you live to be as ancient as I am, you'll also enjoy your great-grandkids. I have three. BTW, grandparents are supposed to spoil their grandchildren it a rule cast in stone.
