This morning on MRT to work, I decided to do a stocktake of my life to date. Now in office toilet cubicle, I shall put my thoughts in words.
I'm single, going to be late 30s soon. I am averagely happy with my life, ie., sometimes happy, sometimes unhappy, sometimes melancholic, sometimes positive. It's sort of like a balance of ups and downs.
I have not (yet) given up on my life,but I wouldn't say I am living a fabulous life, in the sense that I feel I just live and exist on a daily basis. Nothing fantastic in my view.
My goal is to just make it through each day. Eat, work, exercise, masturbate (or have sex), shit and sleep.
I also don't consider myself a total failure nor success. I think I am just mediocre.
I have done a lot of travelling before Covid19. I like travelling, thanks to my late father who doted on me a lot.
I have a Bachelor's second upper degree and a job I enjoy. Basically my job is the only thing that often brings me joy. I truly enjoy what I do while I'm at work (despite an erratic lady boss). However, that's about it.
I feel that I am simply existing. No goals, no purpose, neither functional or dysfunctional.
Is it wrong to simply exist?
I have a new GF now. Despite so, there are times I wonder if I don't bother about getting married, have kids, start another journey in life - is it ok?
Or must I start changing my thoughts, direction and realign my life purpose?
What did you do or not do when you were around my age that help you sustain to now?
I welcome any learned/useful and time tested opinion from well lived senior Sammyboyers in this forum.
Your guidance will be very much appreciated by me.
