ayo. old head here.
At 29. I had a pact with myself to kill myself before my 40th birthday.
I'm 43 this year.
If you take one piece of advice away: life is always worth living, there's always a tomorrow, no matter how bad you feel that feeling is not forever and things can change and you can change them.
I have struggles, doubts, frustrations, rages, disappointments, set backs, failures and, indeed, depression. But I lived. And even today I had a bad moment, I was feeling super low - but this evening I had a wonderful time with some friends and came home to my wife who I adore.
You made it to 25 and I knew a few people who didn't when I was 25. Now I'm forty fewer people have made it with me.
I miss them but we get to see what's next. You get to see what's next.
Enjoy being 25, 26, and beyond
I'm glad you're still here and thank you so much for the words of advice/encouragement.
43 this year too. 42 was a wild ride and 43 isn't shaping up to be any less crazy.
If I could offer only one piece of advice, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proven by scientists, where as the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.
And no, there was no copying, nor pasting involved, I just remember that "song" very well. If you don't know what I'm talking about, it may be worth looking up, because as I've gotten older, the advice in that "song" has only become more accurate, more true, and hit home a whole lot harder year after year.
What song?
The Sunscreen Song. it was a hit in the late 90s / early 00s
