I'm not sure what i'm missing in life. If i know, i won't want to have it in my life, to make it complete. As i know once my life is complete, there's nothing more to look forward to and my life will become stagnant, everything becomes a routine, doing just for the sake of having to do it. It's better to miss something than to own it all.

You are very interesting, but well said. I wonder how many are as wise as you at your age. Here's wishing that you may never know (I mean it in a good way), and wishing to know you better (through your discussions). Great to know SG has such profound and prolific young thinkers.

Most of all, I'm still missing a second child in my life. I'd like my daughter to have a brother or a sister, so that she won't be on her own when I'm gone one day. When this "task" is completed I think my life will be complete, too. I'll try to give my children the best I can regarding to education and future, home and stability, to ensure they grow up confident, proud and moral people. Once I do that, my life will be complete.
In a more "selfish" manner - right now I'm trying to find alternative sources on income since the one I have is not sufficient enough to ensure quality life without being rich. A task I need to complete, if I ever should fulfill the above mentioned tasks.

It's great that you seek to have a second child, but frankly even at one child, your life is complete. The second child will certainly enhance, but do not wait till he/she comes. In the meantime, let your daughter know she has also made your marriage with your wife complete.
We are all looking for alternative incomes too, till the times comes when we can (if we ever) say our income is ENOUGH, let's just treasure what we do have. Quality of life is self-defined. If you over-define it, you will be disappointed. If you under-defined it, when you reach it, the benchmark will shift up in tandem to your new found level. You decide.

Thank you for these words. I'd like to specify, though, that I am the wife in our family, and the mother. I know my life still can be complete with only one child, as long as I give her a good start in life and make sure she has everything she needs.It's just my dream to have another kid.
As for the money - it's not enough for anybody. I just need to increase it to be able to pay my bills and MAYBE sometimes to be able to afford buying some things I've been craving for a long time. My purpose is not to get so rich that I can't sleep at night. That's all. I think everybody thinks like me at least once in their life.

I have several things in my life that cause me to have empty feelings. I lost my long time job a full year ago and am having a hard time getting back up on my feet. I have been earning a bit on my own but it requires me to work triple the amount a normal person does and not exactly making it yet.
So getting my life back on track is really holding me back, and not exactly making me feel complete.

I have seen you work in here, and you certainly live up to your name. To be frank, the company that didn't hold you back at the job? I think it's their loss, not yours. Yes, you may need some time to pick yourself up, and when you do, I know there's no stopping "Wendy the powerful".
Go, girl!

I think were always incomplete. Thats the fun of life, is constantly wanting more and being eager in life. Just loving and appreciating that we always have things to search for is so exciting to me. A better statement would be that I am happy with my current state and I live as a joyous creator, constantly expanding what I want.
