when I grow up

Hot 4748 views. 2015-3-11 11:54

Weather is becoming warmer day by day. After departing from basketball for almost half a year, I went out on the basketball ground again. There, I met an elder man who is nearly 60 years old. Despite his old age (at least I think it's old) and also the first playing in recent months, he shows great enthusiasm and fully energetic. The figure of him is so well-built that I, in my thirties, can hardly  make defence on him.  
Back to home, I thought a lot about the respectable man and myself. Indeed, I have been in a low mood for some time. I complain about my work and my life, things are unfair to me, people are not generous, job is dull and nonsense, blah, blah, blah. I was always thinking of escaping from the unescapable present. These negative emotions are really ruining me, so that I lost my interest in many things, like doing sports, reading books, enjoying cook and meals.  I feel nervous sometimes: what's the hope of my life?
But, I should definitely not go on with this state. There's still a long long way to go in front of my feet. The man on the basketball ground shows me that: even you are 60 years old, life could still be passionate and enthusiastic. So, are there problems with my surroundings? or it's just the problem of myself? I think it can not be clearer now. 
What I would be like when grow up? The question perplexed me for so long now has an answer: What you will be later is what you endeavour to  be at present.

You described the situation so well and your worries about the future is normal and  shows that you are a responsible person. Everybody has to think about his own future and you plan and consider about your future and old age, you would have a more secure and assured future. Work hard but do not fear about the future, because there are too many things beyond our control. Nature gave birth to us and nature should be able to provide for us.

Hey friends , cheer up. Things themselves are not good or bad, it is ours' thought that push things into good or bad labels. We just do what we need do, prepare for the worst and hope for the best, don't think too much, and each time we just try our best to do one thing, then you may find that your life will change little by little. Do trust me ,long before, I just take the same approach like you, but now, I feel ease, and can accept any results openly. Just do it with smile,  to accept all as granted, try our best to make us perfect, then the success will doom to us one day.

i know you meaning your current life blind you or bind you. But everyone are trapped by own surrouding not only you feel so. We are not entitled to do what we want, we can escape to our own world we have to keep up to society step to be better and stronger. Honestly, we are in the persuit of making money and caring surroundings. What we can do is deposit yourself and find the right way to move on and one day you will be awarded by endeavourment hopefully it nears.

When you are at 60, you can be still very energetic as what you are right now, as long as you are keeping it up in a positive manner.
Now that you realize the the importance of going forward to meet a better life which is supposed to be more awesome than what you are living right now, I think you are on the way to achieve your greatness at the first beginning, the next step you need to do is just to step out to breath fresh air without any hesitation.
