Things you were once so concerned about mean little today. Do you ever think about this? I just look back and laugh...

I so know what you mean! What was important to me 10 years ago.......just seems so insignificant now.

Have you ever tried to pace out the stages in your life? For a while, different changes seemed to always happen to me every three years. I would be totally focused on one thing, then three years later........BOOM......it would totally change. Then you hit a certain age.......and without knowing it.....you go three years.....four years......five years......and you all of a sudden realize you are sustaining focus on just ONE thing without moving on. It blew my mind when I realized it. And now I look back and can't for the life of me figure out how it happened. lol

Did I just sorta kinda maybe grow up? **shakes head** Nahhhhhh.........surely that can't be it. ;)

Absolutely. However this perspective only comes as you grow older. Unfortunately we never have the power of hindsight. Best example i can think of is - As a young man recently married I attended a party with some friends from work. One of these was approaching retirement. during a long conversation he said to me "I really envy you your youth" at the time I didn`t understand - but now some 30 years later I do

FANTASTIC question!!
I, too, think about this often. I look back at things I felt at the time were "apocalyptical" in my life! LOL!! But things have a funny way of working out, & the sun keeps coming up every day.
Amazing

Yes things that I was so worried and ossesive about before,never have that same edge years later-life is always evolving and the changes are sometimes good sometimes bad,butone thing we worry about today is the last thing we think of tomorrow.

hhhmmm.....
My priorities seem to be about the same as they have always been, in my adult life, some even more so.
