When you’re young,
You’re questioned
“What are you going to do with your life?”
When you’re old,
You may still be questioning
“What am I going to do with my life?”
You are a stretch of
Answers……

I do, too. My horror wasn’t at my colleague; it was at the frightening realization her asking the question in her 60s meant that I’d never be able to consider the question resolved. :0

I find your colleague beautiful. No, you won’t be asking the question over and over again, you’ll be answering it.

I remember once listening in horror as a colleague in her sixties said “I have to figure out what I’m going to do with the rest of my life.” You mean I’m never going to figure it out? I’ll just be asking this question over and over again for the rest of my life? HELP! lol

Good one!
Instead of bothering much about what to do with my life, I just wait for life to evolve and wait for the surprises it has in store.

Thank you for a beautiful reflection. If we stop asking ourselves that question, we stop being aware of our existence.

Reblogged this on Michael Seidel, writer and commented:
Most of the time, I’m only asking, “What am I going to do with this day?” But I admire this economical expression of the question that chases so many humans.
