RE: Cancer and life: A Game of chance?
why not go now?
I am going now...But my life isn't a fairy tale where I can just jet-set around the world like Rumplestiltskin. I go away, then save up to go next time, then go again, all the while furnishing my life with every important and valued aspect along the way.
Some don't have the financial ability to go at all. It may be because they have family commitments or simply don't earn enough money. I understand that some can't just do whatever it is their heart desires. I respect those who don't defer to credit spending to do it as well! Life is complicated sometimes. Sure, we can uncomplicate it and live in a cave...But it's doubtful that person would be flying around the world right?
Work is a means to an end to me. We have a pretty good life here HD, one I don't go into in any great detail on the platform or with anyone outside my circle. We're content with the balance we create although I'd rather not work if I didn't have to. We don't have a money tree though and so I work to earn it.
I rarely spend time lamenting other people's decisions to put things off until the are 70. Screw them, they make their choice, I don't need to give it any of my time. I spend a lot of time designing and creating my ideal life though and I am very confident that should you see a snapshot of it you'd approve and comment that things are well on track. 😊

True, some people can't afford to go. Some just complicate their lives and buy a lot of stuff they don't really need, also. We live very consumerist times and the truth is if we kept from buying useless things for a year, we could get enough money for a trip. Not everyone, some people are actually hard up and need that money for other things, but also some are not.
It doesn't matter, anyway. Everybody lives their own life as he/she sees fit.
I'm sure I would be. I often think about the people around me and about their lives (it's good to analyze people, gives you an in-depth understanding of how they work) and you're not among the ones who don't seem happy or caught up in lives they don't really want. :)
