"As I rapidly approach 40..."
Seriously this train needs to slow down. I know people tend to be happiest in their 60s, 70s, and 80s, but unlike many people, I do live with some regrets surrounding my 20s, and would like a bit more time in Youngeville. Doubt I can make up for it all, life is what it has become in many ways, grass is greener and so on, but yeah... Wish I could be as content as some of the commenters here.
- davesque 10y agoI think part of what the author was saying (though he sure found a dark way of saying it) is that, past a certain age, it's okay not to panic. Update: Changed wording once I realized you weren't disagreeing with me.
- rybosome 10y ago> but unlike many people, I do live with some regrets surrounding my 20s. What people are you talking to that don't have regrets from that age? Accumulating regret is a part of life. I wish that I had been more patient with others, spent more time with my brother, kissed that girl I met in Berlin, not worried so much about what others thought...the list is endless, and I'm still in my late twenties.
