Panic Years πππ
Although you made me more than giggle when reading all the panic feelings we may have, some of them resonate with me. Not that I think I ever was in panic mode, but for some reasons certain aspects not addressed in life, felt like a pressure from society. Simply by all sorts of people constantly asking about this topic. Not sure if it is about age entirely, but most of such questions aren't asked anymore by peeps in my family and inner circles, even by peeps in somewhat more outer circles, now I am older. Well, perhaps my inner and outer circle peeps are also older and wiser, excepting the situations, or perhaps not that much interested anymore, orrrrr they simply know me better than when I was younger.
My philosophy in life is. Take it as it presents itself. Be open to opportunities, the adventure. But also, pass on them whenever we feel like, or our logical side says so. But not always. More like, a bit of this and a bit of that. In addition, accept whatever we decide, always. Learn from those decisions, but never feel guilty about decisions made. I believe this is the only way to reach happiness levels. When this is without filling in all the panic topics, or some of them, then it is what it is.
NJOY today... as well as NJOY tomorrow, and accept today π
Exactly... There isn't any actual manual to life
