RE: Perspective, Priorities and The Wheel of Life.

in Steem For Ladies2 years ago

I never wanted to be anything and if it comes to my children only two out of 5 had a wish to be...

What we all have in common is we hate the question: Where do you see yourself in 5 five years (always asked by school and it's for your own good to fill out what they like to hear.).

As I asked my grandmother why she never remarried she told me her life was good, better, way better than at the time my grandfather was still alive. Why taking care of an old complaining sick man who lives from my income, she said, I have no time for that.

Just like her I have no time. I delete those out of my life who drain my energy and try to kick me down. My road is longer than my children's and I am happy they invest in themselves, ignore how society tries to force them into something they don't want.

I too am happy I am old, less expectations from others, more freedom for me and no way I will go to an elderly's home to be finally be together with the man I was meant to be, like @gertu joked.

I never felt the need to conquer anything. I am a survivor, I am good at it and it's quite a prestation plus what I am proud of. I don't need an award for it just my freedom.

Beautiful sunny photos!

Aint that the truth!!! I do not believe in the school system at ALL!!!! The word itself says it all!!! SCHOOL.

HAHA cute! It always makes me smile when you hear the words and wisdoms of older people who have already been through the ringer a few times!

Hats off to both you and to your kids! I feel exactly the same way!!! I want my son to be a free thinker, not a sheeple!
