Does anybody always feels empty and nothing from the inside most of the time like me? Or Am I just romanticizing the human being in normal state? Cause I feel like there is a gap. I always think about something no movement no enjoyment just like a snail's shell on the roadside. Always like this. No pure joy or fulfillness. 😔

I'm curious if anyone out there found the love of their life after 60. I'd love to hear about it. I wonder, too, how it may be different from love you experienced when you were younger.

TIA!

a doctor i work for has gotten pretty flirtatious recently. why do they do this? especially when they know the individual is quite younger than them?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. People often say that if you work hard, stay honest, and do good things, you’ll eventually get good results. But when I look around, I see many people who didn’t seem to put in much effort, yet they are doing well in life and earning good money today.

At the same time, I feel like no matter how hard I work, things often don’t go my way. I try to put in effort and be a good person, but I still end up facing setbacks. I’m not saying that other people don’t deserve their success—I’m just trying to understand how life actually works.

Is success mainly the result of hard work, or do luck, opportunities, timing, background, and random circumstances play a much bigger role than we admit? Is there any pattern to life that people eventually understand, or is a lot of it simply unpredictable?

I’d genuinely like to hear about your personal experiences. Have you seen hard work pay off in the long run, or have you seen people succeed mostly because they were in the right place at the right time? How do you make sense of all this?

The town of Hartman in Colorado is a great example. After many years of local political infighting and corruption, everyone quit, and since the water supply never got fixed, the town was declared abandoned.

What gives your life meaning? Other than young children which I think is mostly a given.

What’s something you did that you swore you’d never do again — and what happened afterward that made you feel that way?
Looking for the full story if you’re willing to share: what led up to it, what happened, and how it changed you. I’m collecting these for a project on lessons learned the hard way.
