re: How old were you when life lost its thrill?

Ditched the American matrix a few years back, along with its psychotic cost of living .. and a failing marriage .. and the Catholic guilt I grew up with .... moved overseas where my US dollar bills go 5-10x further than they do in the Divided States of America .... working remotely, eating fresh high quality food and walking every day of my life approx 5 or 6 miles .... dating women young enough to be ......... my younger sister..

Combine all of it and, even though im almost 50- I feel more alive than I did in my 20s or 30s.. call it a "mid-life" crisis or whatever, dont matter to me- I have zero complaints .. Cant imagine 'losing the thrill of living' or anything like that, unless you have a major disability or lost a child or something.. then I get it.. otherwise, Get busy livin', or get busy dyin' .
