Ready for the time of my life


It seems like everyone around me is falling ill. Family members, colleagues, friends.. even random gym members, regulars of mine who attend my classes faithfully have been out for weeks. And when they return, they cite all sorts of illness and health issues as the reason for missing in action.

All this really got me thinking. In todays modern lifestyle, are we lost in pursuit of affluence to the point of endangering our health? Where does one strike the balance? It always seems like we aren't doing enough and if we stop for one moment, someone else will grab the opportunity and we are left to pick up the pieces.

I wonder when will the time come when you know that you have made it. Success is not measured by wealth and finance alone, but by being in complete and utter peace with oneself. When you could get up every morning with no worries hanging over your head and tackle the day with vigor. Face all the challenges that come your way and then go home content and fulfilled. Problems should have a 2 hour lifespan. If it can't be solved within the time, it ought to time out on its own accord and you shouldn't have to worry about it anymore. Wouldn't that just be great?

Great as my life is at the moment, there must be something missing for me to claim that I am ready for the time of my life. Because if I'm not living it now, then when will I? Youth is fleeting and I intend to live it to its fullest extent. I'm done living the dull, grey and hum drum routine. I'm ready for the time of my life.
