    I think this all the time. I have trouble being in the moment, but my life right now is possibly the best it’ll ever be. So it’s important that I take the time to be grateful for how things are right now.

    I like how many assumptions were made there. But they are all wrong in my case. I’m fucking sick, away from home and basically miserable at the moment. Only good thing is I’m still alive and have all my faculties. 20 years from now all I’ll want is a comfortable home, reasonable health, my loved ones and my puppy with me. I’m old enough to know that I’m not into retakes.

      Lucky coincidence, 20 years ago, I remember there was this one time I really really wanted to get to the shitter

      Fast forward 20 years, and I’m so happy it happened!

      Hey shrub, FWIW I think the world is better with people like you in it. Take care of yourself, please, and I hope life treats you as well as it can. If you ever need someone to talk to or anything, this internet stranger’s door is always open.

    This might be true now, but I definitely wouldn’t want to be where I was when I was 20 again. My life back then sucked ass.

    I have never felt this way. Part of it’s luck, but even hard stuff I feel like has made me a better person, and happier for it.

    I sure as fuck hope not. My body is already broken and I’m quite miserable where I am. I understand my body will only get worse but if nothing else is going to get better this is the opposite of wholesome.

    Well fucking thanks. Fat chance of me enjoying this moment now. Instead I just feel bad for all the moments missed and mortality in general.

    This is terrible. I wouldn’t want to go back 20 years at all. Every year I’m grateful that it has been better than the last. Life is on the up and up. I’m not wishing to go back, I’m looking forward to next year.
