Turning 50 - The Art of Living With Purpose

It's time to shed the weight, chase forgotten dreams, and live for ourselves

By Rohitha LankaPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

When we turn 50, we realize that we have much less time than we used to have.

After turning 50, there is no time to waste. Every second is very precious.

So we don't have time to give to those who never set aside time for us!!

When we turn 50, we find our old diaries, read them, and look at the dreams we had. We should try to make those hopes and dreams that were hidden in the whole world come true.

When we turn 50, we should become light like a wing. We cannot bear the weight and the noise that we cannot bear.

We should untie all the ties, all the attachments, and all the attachments that we have tied and held tightly to everyone, everywhere, who is bad for us and not good for us.

We need to protect our souls, knowing that after fifty we will die very quickly, like a small flower blooming on an asphalt road.

After fifty, we need to stop thinking too much and start living for ourselves. Make ourselves happy. We need to live for our own self-satisfaction.

We need to stop thinking of everything else as a bonus and not a salary.......
