re: Anyone going through an existential crisis?

I'm not gonna preach, but just offer this advice: do go camping for a week, by yourself. But leave all the intoxicants behind, they just keep you from feeling what you need to feel.

I'm dang near 64 and retire in a few months. I've found that as I got older my give a rip meter is starting to peg out. Stuff doesn't bother me anymore and I'll answer truthfully to any question. Some aren't fond of that. LOL. Spending time with my son at the gym and the golf course and playing with and attending functions of our 10 grandchildren keep me going. Walk 2-3 miles nearly everyday, feed our chickens, starting to build garden boxes for next year, and just chilling out on the porch with a cup of coffee has become my zen.

Knowing that I have way more life behind me than in front of me is daunting, and I think of it often. Fortunately I believe in the power of Jesus Christ and that helps me so much come to grips with our mortality.

So with all that said, not sure if I have ever had an existential crisis but sure do have a lot of crap in my mind to sort out. But I breathe and bleed so that is part of life.

Cheers my brothers and sisters.......

So much peddling of drugs on this thread Just white collar versions of EYLANO

Yeah I bet you guys want some of that special K you frickin degenerate scum.

Maybe not existential, but the older I get the more disillusioned I get with the ways of the world. Maybe it’s just my world, but greed, vanity, and dishonesty are rewarded at the expense of honest, humble people. Maybe it’s because I’m witnessing it now where I work where one of the most honest and good men I’ve ever worked with is getting pushed out by two evil, greedy, power hungry men that should have long ago retired(they’re both late 60’s, early 70’s) I’ve lost a lot of motivation to work and losing pride in my work over it.

Yeah but I just go fishing.
