You have finally coped with, dealt with, defeated, and experienced all sorts of things. Some were good, some were bad. “But you did experience these things!”
You found some solutions, some improvements; and sometimes, you found out there were no solutions.
Again …. “But you did experience these things!”
How do you know you’ve gotten “old”?
You finally realize that there’s no one to tell, no one to share with!
You finally realize that even though you have all this experience, no one is interested!
You cannot do anything useful with this life full of experiences!
That’s when you realize you have finally gotten old!
Well, what’s so useful about that?
You can come to realize that you cannot be discouraged if no one bothers to listen.
You can come to realize that you cannot be disheartened if no one heeds your advice.
You can come to realize that you cannot be disheartened if you cannot prevent trouble.
That’s what’s so useful…. You cannot be disheartened!
Well, what can you do? (What’s the “successful alternative?)
You can continue to try!!!
Your success does not lie in the success of the results.
Your success is the self satisfaction that you have done your best…. (“You cannot be disheartened!”)
You try and use your best understanding of your own experience; and, your best definition of the experience in which you’re now involved. You use your best communication skills, your best emotional skills, and your best sense of compassion. That’s simply the “best” you have to offer!
Remember….. “You cannot be disheartened!”
Even though you finally realize you’re “old”, you still can enjoy “offering”!
Your success is in the “offering”! …. Not the results!!!
After all, “what’s the successful alternative”?
