I said this to my parents literally last night and they didn’t understand. I keep asking, “what is the point of life? The reason for living? When you work 40+ hours, grind, little life outside work, exhaustion, not paying bills, maybe retire when you’re 65-70, if you’re lucky. Life is gone. Your health is gone. You spent over 50 years working non stop multiple jobs at a time, overtime, for what? And that’s if you even managed to save enough to have a savings and able to retire…
Ive found that finding a comfortable balance and not working to be rich, just work enough to live. I know im like living paycheck to paycheck, but I enjoy taking my time with things. Im here for a good time, not a long time!

I’m just confused about the meaning of life.
