What do you do with the time you have left?

When I reach that certain age I will be able to live financially dependent from anybody else and that includes my sisters who help me with my dire situation right now. I want to be financially fulfilled and emotionally matured in that age. When i am confident with myself I will probably reach out to others like particiapting in some outreach program. Like visiting some far flung ares in our locality. I would like to know and study how people cope their everyday lives so far from the city. How they lived their life everyday...I want to know what are their dreams and their conditions maybe I can help in my own little way.

What an interesting question! The thought crossed my mind many months ago before I turned 30 this month. I think I struggled with reaching this age, I am one who FEARED getting older and still do a little but I think I'm learning to accept it a little more now. For me it would have to be to just keep staying happy. I grew up in church, strayed away for a little while, didn't really do bad things but I'm not as close to God as I should be and I want to live the rest of my life being a better person and have a better relationship with him for my kids and myself. I want to help others as well do the same. I'm a simple person I guess and the little things make me happy so I want to keep being a great mom and wife, friend, sister and daughter, etc:)

2 decades... such a treat. well, by the time i reach those years, i would be exercising my freedom to enjoy life. understand people. acquire new hobbies. and everyone's dream...to travel the world. i think, the very first step to do what you want to do in this life is have the heart and mind to accomplish them. stop being lazy on your dreams! do! do! do! ;-) i wish to travel at least a country in a year. how to get that done: save up, read more and work hard, as this will serve as the treat.

Well, I turn 58 on Wednesday, and I'd say the years since I hit 50 have been the best of my life. I've moved to Spain from the UK, I'm earning good money as a writer, I've taken up belly dancing, and I've made lots of new friends. 50 is not old. On the other hand, you can be old at 30. Age is not a number, its a state of mind, and although I have arthritis, and so have some mobility problems, I'm still a teenager in my head. I look good and I feel good, so I hope I've got lots of time left - I ain't finished yet!

Beyond 30-50...life could still be productive as long as one is healthy. i would like to spent my older age being useful and mobile for my family. And,if given chances,to help others that needs my help(as long as i can). It is also a good chance to enjoy life,when kids are grown ups by the time i reached 50 if God's permit. Or,seeing my kids having family of their own,i maybe could be playing with my grankids that time

Life starts at 40 they say,hehe and its between 30-50 hehe,well for now i'll work alot and save alot so when the time comes that i wanna rest then i'll have enough money to spend for the rest of my life or i might use my savings to build a small business so i wont get bored when i get older.

I'd like to get married and raise my own family. Of course I'd like to have a stable job. To have all that, I'll finish my studies first. Then I'll look for a stable job. I'll just go with the flow when it comes to relationships cuz I feel it goes well that way (I tend to look like a moron whenever I force myself to some chic. LOL). And everything else, I'll leave to the future.

Life goes on beyond 50. I'm sure it pays to be physically active and mentally alert as well. In that way you do not become a burden to yourself and the people around you. And get to enjoy your family as well as life.
