Thread: Is Living Good For You?

    Is Living Good For You?

    It may be that living ain't all it's cracked up to be - and that not living is better. Silenus (Ancient Greek fella) once said that living was awful (or words to that effect) and that it would be better 'to die soon'.

    Just asking like!

    I know what you mean. We lived in a camper van for 16 months ( a test of any relationship - I can tell you). On the van the previous owner had written 'One Life Live It!'.
    No - that would be an impossibility, I'm afraid. Had the OP in my thirties - how ridiculous is that eh!

    Yes - you are correct. I'm simply not the man I used to be.

    Nobody lives.
    We are all slowly dying, and have been since birth.

    I have nearly found a good way to live, but I just can't get enough work. So glad that you (appear) to have found it.

    Re: Is Living Good For You?

    My wife bought me a lottery ticket the other day, and for a while we laughed about what we would do with the life changing money, when it dawned on me that I didn't really want my life to change and that I'm happy as I am. Sure, I wish I didn't have these aches and pains and I'd like to not have to worry about old age but right now, I really do count my blessings.

    Re: Is Living Good For You?

    Since Slade was appointed life has become a pain football-wise.
    However handing in my notice today in work to try and become master of my own destiny. So on balance, Slade/Young apart, it's worth living

    That's a good place to be - and money won't necessarily buy it.

    Sure is. I took a pretty hefty pay cut a couple of years ago to a far less pressured but far more rewarding job.
    I'm thinking about doing something similar i.e. going part-time in a lower paid job which has a bit of meaning attached to it.

    We start off dribbling, incontinent and totally reliant on others for all of our needs. We learn to do things for ourselves, but then towards the end of our lives we dribble, are incontinent and become totally reliant again on others for all of our needs.

    Re: Is Living Good For You?

    Why not work for yourself?

    You are in control of your own destiny then, to an extent anyway. I find it extremely rewarding and far less pressurised than when I was working for major PLC's.

    Also, you choose to work the hours that you want to and not what is demanded or expected of you.

    Thanks, notice has been given to boss. I'm going to try my hand at property developing which has up to now been a sideline, it's got to be better than putting up with other peoples' deadlines and priorities. Any spare time will be used to further the outlaw biker theme I have going at the moment.
