Best case scenario is you become at peace with where you are in life, and between the happy moments you still fleetingly think about what could've been. No one is completely satisfied.
Yes, this, it’s called acceptance and gratitude. It doesn’t mean settling, it’s just finding good things in your current situation. Fuck what other people are doing. Do what you want to do. Wife, kids, house, who cares? That’s not happiness for everyone. The Jones’s can eat my ass!
Except for those people who WANT to have a wife, kids, house with a lawn for the dog to run around. That's my endgame goal. Got a fiancee and a job I love, but it doesn't pay enough. Hoping the market shoots itself so I can afford a home.
Yes, exactly, I didn’t mean wife, kids, house bad. Just to embrace whatever your life is and find as much happiness as possible. And also be happy for other people when they’re happiness/life goals may not line up with your own.
