I was doing an article but for some reason it totally disappeared on me. My frustration gave way so I switched gears in mid stream. What are you doing for the rest of your life? That is a tough question for some. At a certain age, lets say 20's, you have high hopes of becoming whatever your desire is. Either you accomplish it or you don't.. Good for you do but is it what you want to do for the rest of your life? Perhaps it is and therefore you are happy for the rest of your life. Now I am jumping 40 years, you are thinking "is this what I want to do with the REMINDER of my life. You are on the down side of that ever present hill. Either you are climbing up (20's) or sliding down the hill (60's). . When you reach "THAT" certain age, have you stopped to consider that there isn't all that much time life to do what you want? Most people make it into their 80's and 20 years goes by very very quickly. Do you want to live where you are? Do you want to sail around the world? Do you want to relax on the beach? The choices you make in your 20's, 30's, 40's etc. are always subject to change. Do what makes you happy while you can. Stop and question yourself - Is this what I want to do for the rest of my life?

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well it is indeed a tough question because u never know what life has in store for u. Life is unpredictable and uncertain so we have to plan out our lives in such a way that we are not left with any regrets or laments. Whatever may be the profession or task we have to find solace in it. What say?
