#83 Age - A pre-mid-life crisis

So, here's the thing. I'm just at the stage in my life where my decisions have just a bit more impact than I'm comfortable with. That what I decide to do now may just end up affecting the rest of my life. And, well, that's not the easiest thing in the world for me to deal with.

In a pre-mid-life crisis

The best advice

is to try not to panic and shout

So get on my page

As I preach from the stage

to tell you what it's all about

Time is a finite resource

So, quick! Decide your course

with what you've learnt already somehow

But each day you are given

Yet another decision

which will decide your life from now

Is your lust for money shameless

Do you want to be famous

and maybe end up in Hollywood

Do you want to make an impact

Or just live with the fact

you don't know what to do in adulthood

So now you are stressed

And I have to say I'm impressed

that you've held together thus far

So just take a quick break

Before you make a mistake

and I will try to make it seem less bizarre

Don't be scared to wander

To discover and ponder

and change course wherever you may desire

Uncertainty is no sin

And you are not caged in

unless you decide to create your own barbed wire
