The pressure of growing up

January 14, 2013 Uncategorized
Spread the love

We may earn money or products from the companies mentioned in this post.

I once read a quote by an old man stating the following:

“First, i was dying to finish my high school and start collegeAnd then i was dying to finish college and start workingThen i was dying to marry and have childrento grow old enoughso i could go back to workBut then i was dying to retireAnd now i am dying..And suddenly i realizedi forgot to livePlease don’t let this happen to youAppreciate your current situation and enjoy each day..old friend

To make money we lose our health,and then to restore our health we lose our money…We live as if we are never going to die,and we die as if we never lived…”

At first I was taken back at how powerful, and significant these words were. I mean it’s true. We long for the future, to have a path, to graduate college and so on. From the moment we are born we have a path. Sometimes peoples paths may go in the wrong direction. You might not get what you want immediately, or you might not ever get it. The only promised path is time.
